SUMMER SOLSTICE DANCE – Bovingdon near Hemel Hempstead

June 21, 2022 @ 7:15 pm - 9:30 pm

A warm invitation to join us in a ceremonial dance journey to celebrate the Summer Solstice. As we connect to the power of the sun – we deepen our awareness to the power and medicine each one of us holds. It is a time of celebration and community and connection. A time to give thanks, to remember who we are and what really matters. A time to spread the wings of our hearts and to expand into the journey of fulfilling our unique blueprints as we lift and embodied prayer for all life.

“Beautiful, transformative – expertly and sensitively held by Mira. High quality on every level – a safe, expansive, empowering and healing space. SO grateful.” – Lydia

***Depending on the weather we might dance indoors in the Roundhouse or outdoors with silent disco headphones.

YOUR FACILITATOR // MOVEMENT MEDICINE

Mira Khanya has a deeply rooted and embodied understanding of the transformative and healing power of movement. Creativity and commitment to her own inner-work and wholeness have always been central in her life. From an early age she explored visual and performing arts which led her to a BA (Hons) Drama degree, focusing on Physical Theatre. She expanded her experience of embodied transformation through meditation, shamanic journeys, yoga, 5Rhythms, butoh, breath-work, embodied listening and contact improvisation. Mira’s calling to support healthy self-expression inspired her to develop a unique creative approach to working with individuals on the autistic spectrum. Dance had her heart and movement is her medicine. An apprenticeship, professional training and continuous professional development with Ya’Acov and Susannah Darling Khan – founders of the School of Movement Medicine – followed.

Movement Medicine integrates ancient wisdom and modern understanding of how change happens. It directs our awareness to our movement, thoughts and feelings – opening the way to deep internal reflection. Through the dance we are invited on a journey of personal empowerment, relationship with community and connection with the creative life force within and around us.

Today the rich tapestry of Mira’s experience as a dancer, therapist and artist is woven into her work. She offers beautifully crafted immersive and transformative dance meditations – activating the embodied imagination through a weaving of words, tribal rhythms, nature sounds and medicine songs.

We look forward to welcome you!
