Earthdance ~ Pray for the People
Advertisement
You are invited to gather in ritual to dance and reconnect to the land that holds us and the community that surrounds us. Come be nourished by nature, feeling your bare feet on the Earth, round the fire under the stars and moon light. In community and ritual we return to our belonging. All welcome here, family friendly and kids come for free.
For this ritual we pray for humanity through our dance, our song and our words round the fire. This is in recognition of the wars on humanity, both overseas and the more subtle wars on Custodians here on this land.
In this sacred space we will:
~ Begin with an embodied meditation of acknowledgement to pay our respects to custodians and country.
~ Share in circle our intentions and what we are moving through
~ Dance to earthy beats that bring us home to body and Earth
~ Close in circle round the fire inviting prayers for those experiencing war and displacement
~ You are invited to stay for a potluck dinner fireside under the night sky with us.
...
We acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woiwurrung people of the Kulin nation as the original Custodians. We acknowledge their ceremony, song and dance that will always live on in the land. May we respect this ancient land, culture and custodians.

ABOUT KARLA
Karla is committed to creating sacred spaces for people to connect and remember their wild nature within.
With over a decade of training and initiations in traditional healing and Shamanic practice, she holds space with a deep appreciation for land and culture. Deeply integrated with a background in paramedicine, Karla has a lived experience of what it is to humbly serve humanity. She is also a spoken word artist and writer, naturally infusing inspiration and deep enquiry as she facilitates, speaking intuitively to what arises in the moment.
As an activist for country and custodians, Karla balances these ceremonial spaces with the acknowledgement of country and the reality of a stolen and traumatised land and people. Connecting people back to their Indigenous roots is at the heart of her practice as a healer and facilitator.
“Belonging means reciprocity and responsibility”

What do people say about it?
Earthdance is a very sacred, special heart connected event. I felt completely comfortable and held by Karla’s genuine, warm gentle spirit. Her presence and grace as a facilitator is so welcoming.
- Sorell
Each time I have had the joy of participating in Earthdance I have been opened up to the opportunity to really feel present in my body. The combination of dance, stillness and gentle moving meditation gave me a chance to experience what I have been struggling with mentally and emotionally.
-Alice
