Authentic Movement Spring Series
2026-05-26 18:00 - 19:30
Authentic Movement is a contemplative dance practice where a mover explores the unconscious mind through self-directed, expressive movement while being witnessed with compassion and non-judgment.

Lyraccord in Concert
2026-06-12 19:00 - 21:00
Lyraccord creates an entry into a unique sonic world. Informed by traditional musics from around the globe, Lyraccord utilizes tunings based on the natural overtone series, giving the music a crystalline clarity. Employing voices, harp, zithers, lyres, n’goni, and guitar, the resulting effect sounds both hauntingly familiar and refreshingly new.

Shake with Niki
2026-06-14 16:30 - 17:30, 2026-07-12 16:30 - 17:30, 2026-08-09 16:30 - 17:30
Shake with Niki (in-person only)

4:30 – 5:30pm Second Sunday of every month, starting November 10th (60-75 mins)

Group Shake – A somatic movement practice during which we will shake to music or sometimes, silence. Shaking, individually but as part of a group to ground us, can be healing as it is a natural way to relieve tension. You may choose to shake standing, seated, lying down or alternating between those depending on what your body needs in the moment. You can choose your own intensity, when to stop or when to keep going as you listen to your own body. While it is important to keep ourselves open to what, if anything, may arise emotionally, please only engage to the degree that you can still care for yourself. This is not a therapeutic space. The practice will start with a demonstration and it will end in silence. Dress comfortably and stay hydrated!

$10-$25

Sonic Immersion
2026-06-14 18:00 - 19:00, 2026-07-12 18:00 - 19:00, 2026-08-09 18:00 - 19:00
Come experience a multi-instrumental Sound Bath with composer-performer Sasha Bogdanowitsch. This full body listening experience will draw from Sasha’s extensive instrument collection of original and global winds, strings and percussion and his background of intensive musical studies of the world’s musics from countries such as India, Indonesia, Europe, the Middle East and the Americas. Sasha will couple this with his unique vocals and electronics to create an ever evolving sonic tapestry that will immerse the listener in resonance and overtones; aiding all in their own sonic journey, relaxation, stress reduction and/ or meditation.

Participants will be free to recline (savasana pose), sit or stand as needed. Some yoga mats and blankets will be available but please bring whatever materials you need to feel warm and relaxed.

The event will last 60 minutes.

Come just for the Sonic Immersion or come early for Shake with Niki, and stay for both.
