    Samhain (saw-win) is a traditional Celtic celebration at the mid-point between the Fall Equinox and the Winter Solstice and marks the beginning of the darkest quarter of the year. The veil between worlds is considered to be at its thinnest.

     

    It is a multidimensional time dedicated to
    celebrating completion of the harvest,
    honoring the beloved dead,
    and the Celtic New Year
    !

     

    It is a potent time to connect with and honor the cycles of nature, and play with the dance of light and dark in our lives.

  • What Women Are Saying

    About the Online Dance Experience:

     

    "I'm really enjoying dancing. It's the first thing I've done in the pandemic which was as good or better than the former - live, in person/ non- electronic way. " ~I

    "Omg. What, what, what???? Holy shit. I feel so free. I didn't know I had so much tightness in my belly. This stuff is legit. It's grounded. I loved it. Thank you so much!" ~R

    "I love how you hold the space for the sacred feminine to emerge. Virtual also has magic!" ~A
