Spring Rising: A Wood Element QiGong & Yoga Dance Workshop
Advertisement
Enter the season of rebirth and new growth—springtime—through this nourishing fusion of QiGong, yoga, and embodied dance. Guided by the wisdom of the Wood element—associated with the liver and gallbladder, tendons and ligaments, the nervous system, and our capacity for vision and direction—we’ll explore how movement can support renewal, flexibility, and creative flow.
Together we’ll gently awaken the abdominal region and side body, sensing and strengthening the pathways of upward growth. Through QiGong we’ll cultivate steadiness and circulation; through yoga we’ll listen deeply to sensation and alignment; and through dance we’ll invite expression, imagination, and play.
This practice emphasizes vision and creativity, spiraling movement, resilience and elasticity, and the dynamic balance between grounding and expansion. We’ll move like trees—firmly rooted in the earth, yet reaching skyward—feeling into what it means to grow without forcing, to rise without losing connection to the ground beneath us.
From this rooted, upward-rising place, we’ll spiral into expressive movement, where yoga’s mindful listening meets dance’s boundless storytelling. Simple, accessible prompts invite you to move in community while also journeying inward—discovering the alchemy of breath, rhythm, and sensation that awakens joy, creativity, and authentic self-expression.
Together we’ll honor the turning of the season: the return of light, the stirring of new possibilities, and the courage it takes to follow one’s inner vision. This workshop offers space to reconnect with your body’s innate intelligence and to remember how movement can be both medicine and celebration.
Your guide:
Jennifer Lucero-Earle is a trauma-informed Registered Somatic Movement Therapist and Educator who has been teaching dance as healing for over 20 years. She weaves together somatic awareness, elemental wisdom, and creative movement to support resilience, embodiment, and transformation—and is very much looking forward to dancing with you.
What to wear / bring:
Comfortable clothing for easy movement. Barefoot is encouraged; a yoga mat is optional for any floor-based exploration.
