About this Event
Fire dancing is a beautiful and exhilarating form of self-expression and it's something that I believe everybody should try at least once. For many people, there's an immediate intoxication with the art form. Something about hearing the WOOSH and feeling the heat as you wield the force wakes up a deeper source within us.
But with all chaotic forces, it can be dangerous if we don't know how to conduct ourselves properly to minimize risk.
In this workshop, we will be undertaking our first burns and getting the opportunity to celebrate the magic of fire dancing and intention setting on the December 16th Full Moon night.
Hosted and facilitated by Siren of the Elements, you'll be welcomed into a cozy and covered outdoor space surrounded by a lush garden, an assortment of snacks, a roaring fire pit, and comfortable pillows and blankets. There will also be a small doggy named Cookie.
Over the course of the evening, we will use the fire as a tool to build up inner confidence, resiliency, and groundedness within the body through movement. We'll dive into the fundamentals of fan flow arts to help build our toolkit for this medium of expression. We'll cover the tricks of the trade and professional fire-safety etiquette used at high-end end-gigs to minimize potential risk. The latter half of the evening will be back-to-back fire dances with the opportunity for commentary and integration between the dances.

About the Facilitator
Siren of the Elements is a multidisciplinary artist, creative, and healer who specializes in helping people access their emotional expression and personal empowerment through movement, music, and the elements. She's a renowned performance artist and fire-spinner across the Lower Mainland and she has become the go-to instructor for fan flow arts and fire-spinning initiations in Vancouver.
Here's what some of her previous students have to say...
"Siren is not only teaching a set of easy to learn moves to express oneself with…. she takes you a soul’s journey inwards to rediscover your sacred connection to fire. The one that is ancestral and stamped into our DNA from the times where we were tribal in our existence, when fire was as revered as we can only imagine, looking back at it from our plastic and concrete jungle... I have been transformed by fire. It was not a dance lesson….it was a healing session with a highly skilled practitioner. I cannot recommend the experience to you enough. You will love it!"
- Mark Lemhor
”I absolutely loved Siren’s class. This was not just a regular fire fan workshop. By following the elements for each of the classes, I felt more of a spiritual connection while learning how to dance with the fans. The final class with the full moon dance, was powerful. Siren was a fabulous instructor. She broke the skills down in a way that was easy to master. She created a safe space to learn and the energy of the classes was support and fun. I started the class with the intention of only using LED fans. But with Siren’s encouragement, I danced with fire for the full moon ceremony! Thanks Siren! I definitely recommend taking her classes and am excited to start her next class.”
