The WorkshopWe often think of the heart as a soft and vulnerable place, a sanctuary for tender emotions. But the heart can also be fierce. It holds a strength that fuels our courage to love, to be, and to take bold steps in life. In this Heartbeat workshop, we will explore the duality of the heart: its softness and its power.
A fierce heart doesn't mean a closed heart. On the contrary, it means embracing an openness that is rooted in deep courage. A fierce heart brings with it the capacity to stand strong in the face of fear and to show up for what matters most. It's the courage to love fiercely and live fully. Fierceheartedness guides us toward loving, right action—moving from our hearts, not just our heads.
The heart always knows. While the brain deliberates with "what ifs" and "maybes," the heart speaks clearly, decisively. This workshop will invite you to listen deeply, to trust your heart's wisdom, and to step into the power of its direction. In this space, we will move with the rhythms of fear, anger, sadness, joy and compassion, as we let the fierce heart emerge and lead us.
This is a co-creation of two powerhouse teachers: Sylvie Minot from the West Coast and Ann Kite from the East. Together, they are coming together to hold a deeply transformative space, weaving their unique energies into a dynamic movement journey for both body and heart. Join us for this transformational weekend, as we cultivate both compassion and strength, honoring the heart's true wisdom
