June Downtemple & Cacao- 'Finding Home in Transition'

Movement - Expression- Connection- Reverence

Save the date - June 6th!

This will be THE LAST DOWNTEMPLE of the season. I am pausing for the summer. Sadly, this also may be the last Downtemple at our beautiful home of Estrella Collective. We hope not, but as many of you know this space is in flux and the future is unknown. Estrella has been an abSOULutely perfect space for this event to blossom, and I pray we will get to continue here. I also Trust in the divine plan. Come out for this possibly last Estrella Downtemple where we will dance our love and gratitude for this HOME.

Our DJ- Super excited to welcome Dj Rabellion to curate our movement journey. I first saw Rabellion (Tati) play at Oregon Country Fair last year and she rocked my world. So honored to have her.Movement 

Warm-Up: Joy Pacetti, Title TBA

Sound Healing: Closing gong bath with Soulbeams!About This Event:

About the Event:
This event is a ritual of connection, Cacao, guided movement, and free-form dance medicine in a downtempo-esque container. The pace is slower...like a steady burning flame, inviting us to drop deeper into presence with every delicious movement. Note: The music is not strictly downtempo... it is downtempo-esque. Inspired by a slower pace but does still follow a journey. BPM typically does not go above 90.

About the Cacao:
Cacao is a delicious, heart-opening medicine with indigenous roots all over the world. Drinking cacao in ceremony where one is invited to connect with the spirit of cacao and invite it into the heart space can bring profound healing experiences, especially when combined with movement such as dance. Cacao is just one more way to infuse Love into your dance!

The cacao we will drink comes from Alta-Verapaz, Guatemala and was processed in Lago Atítlan, Guatemala by a collective of women indigenous to Lago Atítlan. This ceremonial-grade cacao, 'Ruk'u'xUlew', means 'heart of the earth' in Kaqchikel, one indigenous language of Lago Atítlan. We will collectively gather in ceremony to serve and bless the cacao before we drink! To learn more about Ruk'u'xUlew Cacao, visit https://www.rukuxulew.com.
