Join SAH (Somatic Activated Healing) Method™ certified creative healer Ashley Rutledge for an evening of ecstatic dance, fellowship and fun. Using breathwork, movements and affirmations we will create a trauma-informed healing experience where we will move emotional energy up and out of the body. We will invite our awareness to turn inward and dance with what makes itself known. This session will utilize the energy of the full moon on July 10th to support us as we expand our hearts and release anything our bodies are ready to let go of. Participants should expect moderate cardio activity with plenty of prompts to modify and rest. Refreshments will be provided by Rest.Ritual.Routine.
Experience begins at 5:00~ Somatic Dance is 5:30-6:30pm ~ refreshments till 7:00pm
All participants receive a free class at Inner Bliss! Raindate July 10th
This class is designed for the first-time student, or those with some belly dance experience who are interested in returning to the dance. Habiba will guide you through technique essential to the dance. Glide across the floor with elegance as you frame your body with beautiful hand and arm movements; learn shimmies both soft and powerful; hypnotic movements of the hips such as figure eights, and undulations. Set to the exciting rhythms of North Africa and the Middle East, students will learn a fun choreography incorporating these techniques. Belly dancing is a great low-impact workout, suitable for all sizes and ages. Classes are uplifting and fun!
The Inner Light Yin and Restorative Immersion is a healing journey designed to deepen relaxation, restore balance, and awaken your inner light. Combining the slow, gentle stretches of Yin yoga with the soothing support of Restorative postures, this immersion creates space for deep release and self-reflection.
We will blend long-held poses with conscious breathwork, mantra, and guided meditation to quiet the mind and calm the nervous system. This nurturing practice invites you to let go of tension, reduce stress, and reconnect with your true essence.
Ideal for all levels, this immersion offers a sanctuary of stillness where you can cultivate mindfulness, emotional resilience, and a sense of inner peace—helping you recharge and align with your highest self.
Full moons offer an opportunity to let go of what we no longer need and circles are spaces to listen to our heart’s song in a beloved community. After we cast a sacred circle, move, meditate and let go, Charlie Adinolfi will bless us with a beautiful sound bath to help make space for new moon wonders.
Mati opens the doors at 6:30 for food & fellowship.
Circle starts 7pm.
Join SAH Method certified creative healer Ashley Rutledge alongside soundscape artist Charlie for a transformational somatic dance experience designed to build awareness, presence, and release through movement and sound.
We’ll begin with guided meditation to ground into the body and meet our inner world. From there we'll move into lightly choreographed movements paired with breath and affirmations to allow the mind to fade into the background. The body will then take center stage as we're encouraged to dance ecstatically allowing the invisible to become visible.
Charlie will create a resonant sound landscape that transports you to that sacred inner space where true healing lives.
With each beat and tone, you’ll be invited to move intuitively—freeing stuck energy and expressing your inner world through dance.
All emotions and sensations are welcome on the dance floor. This is a safe, supportive container where what arises can be honored and metabolized—leaving you feeling lighter, more energized, and deeply at peace.
Expect moderate cardio movement with options for rest and modification. You are the highest authority on your experience. This practice is a non-invasive, joyful way to move emotional baggage without needing to analyze or relive it.
We dance and heal for those who can't. We understand that our liberation is connected and by choosing to embrace our messy humanity, we can show up as beacons of light. Let’s expand our highest vibrations—dance, sound, and healing for the benefit of ourselves and all beings.
