HAPPY SUMMER Beautiful Ones,
Now is the perfect time to slow down and open your senses to receive the sweet gifts that summer has to offer -- the song of birds rejoicing, the smell of sweet lilacs dancing, the taste of fresh cherries bursting, the touch of sun showers sprinkling, and the romance of moonlit nights twinkling. What a delicious season it is!
Sending you the deepest and highest love EVER,
Erica

The practice of Dance Our Way Home is centred around community and envisions one where ALL women are included and ALL women are given the space to dance their way home.
The barriers that keep women from accessing this healing and transformative practice are many, however, and stem from socio-economic, geographical, cultural sources. The Community Outreach component was born from the desire to overcome such barriers and to truly make the practice of Dance Our Way Home available to all women.
Initiated in the spring of 2010 by Twyla Kowalenko, the promising project is being continually built by a growing community of women who are passionate about sharing the practice with others.

This new series is the 4th of 5 DOWH Intro Level Series -- Nest, Nourishment, Unfolding, Attainment and Freedom. No previous series attendance needed.
Attainment is a personal journey of self-discovery, empowerment and manifestation. Through free-style dance, relaxation, guided imagery, and community, we will explore the ease and flow of magic-making (a shift of perception) by being relaxed and fully present with our intentions, body wisdom, dreams and desires.
We will connect with the healthy Choice Maker within who KNOWS you and what you need. We will find and release obstacles that prevent us from making our dreams reality, and celebrate the joys of co-creating in a place of power, depth and love.
Come be nourished and inspired each week in a safe and sacred space of dance, relaxation and guided imagery, in the warmth of a sweet circle of women.
