Hi Beloveds!
You are all always always invited to the
Dana Cafe, a monthly gathering in Oakland CA offering transformational teachings at no cost to participants. Each month on first Sunday, we invite a different teacher from various arts and healing traditions. Our monthly classes are offered for Dana (give as you are able and inspired) and there is no set fee to attend.
This month we are so honored to welcome healer,
dancer, movement therapist, performer and cultural activist
extraordinaire Tania Llambelis! Tania will be guiding us as we work with
trauma in the body.
The intention of this workshop is to
release the pain, discomfort, fear and other emotions related to trauma
that is recorded in our muscle memory. Through the use of Authentic
Movement practices, Experiential Anatomy and elements of Caribbean
Espiritismo (a form of ancestor work), we will shift to a new space
within ourselves of greater aliveness. We will evoke our Spirit Guides
to support this process, thus creating a multidimensional healing space.
Tania Llambelis is a Nuyorican who has lived in Northern C
alifornia
for the past twenty-one years. She is a spoken word artist, performer,
producer, director, improviser, cultural activist and ritualist. She
studied Dance at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, where
she received her B.A. and her M.A. in Drama from San Francisco State
University. In 1998, she received certification in Massage Therapy and
in 2000, she became certified as a Somatic Movement Therapist. She is a
fourth generation Espiritista. Ms. Llambelis is a co-founder of
Oakland Improv Collective, a group dedicated to performing in
non-traditional spaces.
Please wear white or light colored clothes that will be comfortable to move in.
Please feel free to bring items for our healing altar. Donations of flowers and herbs for cleansing are appreciated.
