What does the weekend look like?
Imagine creating a powerful and creative circle of dancing women…
We breathe
We write
We dance
We shake it off and bring it on
We honor ourselves and each other
We stretch
We love
We laugh
We sweat, both on the dance floor and in the sauna
We soak, loving the healing water and the heat
We dance alone, yet with each other
We hunt and gather, inside to outside
Meditating, journaling, dancing…feel the love…
