Seth Newman: ''My purpose is to facilitate rituals that empower “the whole human being” through dance and music. Like Bioenergetics and other somatic processes, for me, Ecstatic Dance was another door to inner discovery and transformation. I have always been passionate about contemporary forms of music and dance that reclaim our vital energy and our creative potential."

As a coach, Seth is dedicated to helping people calm, empower and rejuvenate their busy minds and bodies to achieve the best versions of themselves. Seth brings a wealth of experience holding heart-centered spaces. He integrates the roots of Humanistic therapies, Bioenergetics & Body Psychotherapy, Transpersonal Psychology and Tantra in creative and life-transforming workshops, retreats and trainings.

Seth offers 1-to-1 Transformation Coaching & Breathwork Sessions. If you're interested please email him: [email protected]

11:45AM - 2:30PM (no entry after 12pm)

This workshop is based on the work of Creative Flow Dojo® . Whose main aim is to help you develop daily habits to make your dreams come true! Whether it's about writing that book, meeting "the one", creating a rewarding career, having the courage to take risks in your life, achieving daily healthy habits, or just feeling good and being more connected to your body and your life-vision, we would love to support you!

• Creative Flow - The optimal body-mind state of consciousness where we feel and perform at our best.

• Dojo - A dōjō is a space for immersive learning and practice. This term is traditionally used within the field of martial arts.

To be generative, to be creative, we must first create the optimal conditions and get into a "creative flow state". Throughout our classes, you will learn how to get there, and with practice, stay there. This is what the Creative Flow Dojo™ is about - helping you to get into an optimal state for creativity, performance, health and wellbeing.

• Learn how to develop a "creative flow state" for health & wellbeing, creativity and optimal performance in which you can creatively engage with whatever you're faced with. It could be a criticism, it could be a challenge, it could be a particular problem, or it could be a creative performance!

• Discover how to tap into and maintain a peak performance state, what we are calling a "creative flow state". Athletes might call it "the zone", or martial artists might use the term "chi flow", but whatever you call it, it is a state in which to be able to deal skillfully and creatively, with whatever it is that you are engaged with.

3:45pm-5:45pm

• Expect guided meditations, somatic grounding and centring, and communication practices. Led by Seth Newman

Creating a safe and respectful space, we will explore simple exercises aimed at strengthening our ability to connect to one another and to become more comfortable with honesty, openness and vulnerability.

This workshop is an invitation to the total experience of life, multi-dimensional human life! The main focus of our work is on deepening our connection to the Heart! The workshop is an invitation to slow down and bring your awareness back into the present, back to your body and felt sense, and to simple, yet, precious moments.

The Conscious Connections workshop is about:

• Developing our sensitivity to ourselves and what we are experiencing,
• Allowing ourselves to be, and to be seen,
• Developing love and acceptance for ourselves,
• Becoming aware of the ways we shut down.

The purpose of the breathwork component to this workshop is:

1. To connect deeply with yourself and your own bodily sensations and emotions through conscious connected breathing.
2. To then open up to connecting with others in the group by making eye contact and breathing together. This allows you to see yourself reflected in others and experience the dance of inner and outer awareness.
3. It serves as a ritual or ceremony to celebrate the journey that you are on in your life, crossing the threshold of Winter Solstice, building trust, presence and a deeper friendship with your breath.
4. The practice helps develop the skills of staying grounded and rooted in yourself while also being open to relationship and exchange with others. It explores the push and pull between inner and outer awareness.

My Ecstatic Odyssey is inspired by some of our summertime outdoor Sunset Ecstatic Dances. There is something magical about a sunset or sunrise that takes us deep into The Now. That mystical threshold between past and future, where the world starts to feel alive! We'll be channelling the spirit of Ibiza, Goa, and inspiring Sunset/Sunrises worldwide in this potent time of year.

Come and dance to OPEN-UP, to release city stress, dance in more light and joy, and make new friends - all accompanied by a transformational euphoric & uplifting dance music set to connect us deeply with our dance, our hearts, and our creativity.

We'll be including delicious ceremonial grade cacao and a beautiful cacao ceremony/guided meditation facilitated by Seth to connect us with our body, our heart, and positive intention.

No prior experience of dance necessary. All welcome.

Our Ecstatic Dance sessions have guidelines of: No booze, No Shoes, No phones, No Chit Chat, Move However You Wish, Respect yourself and others. (More info about what is Ecstatic Dance - further down)

No late comers please. This is a shared journey from the beginning to the end and we aim to create a safe container for all dancers. If you are more than 30 min late from the start of the session, unfortunately you won't be able to join the session, please respect this and arrive on time. Thank you
