Movement Meditation with Sherri

04/01/2017 @ 03:30 pm - 05:00 pm
RSY Surya Room

A safe sacred space for women only.

Meditation through Movement and Dance

~ Find your way back to your body

~ Honor what it feels like to be fully present

~ Find your flow, your fluidity, and your connection to the universe

~ Strengthen your wholeness and holiness

~ Experience healing in whatever way is meaningful to you - physical, emotional, spiritual or just a greater sense of well being

The class begins in sacred circle with stillness and a breathing meditation. Soft music starts your journey and you will be encouraged to feel the music and just respond naturally - practicing present moment awareness, dropping any judgement or worry. There is no right or wrong way to move. The music, like a wave, will get greater in intensity and you will be gently guided on different themes or manners in which to move. You will be encouraged and supported by the other women in the group to let yourself just BE. The music softens again and there is a gentle seated or prone meditation to end the class.

Formal training or experience is not required. The type of movement is up to you. This is not a Dance Instruction Class. All ages, all sizes and all capabilities welcome! The music ranges from Classical, to New Age to Pop and Rock and everything in between!

2nd Saturday of each month at 6:30 pm.

Minimum Donation is $10 or class pass

Sherri is a wife, mother, artist and dancer. She has a degree in Graphic Design and also illustrates children's books. She has over 15 years of experience in Eastern forms of meditation. Spirituality has been her most active pursuit throughout her life. She was drawn to Eastern Philosophy at a very young age and has always felt it has much to offer. By chance encounter, she befriended a Tibetan Buddhist monk who was touring with a group representing the Dalai Lama. She was introduced officially to meditation when he taught her her first mantra. A few years later she had the amazing opportunity to meet the well-known Buddhist Monk, Master Thich Nhat Hanh, who gave her the Buddhist name "Tam Be Tre" (compassionate heart of understanding) and officiated her taking her Buddhist vows.

She is currently a student of Master Ching Hai and practices the Quan Yin method of meditation. In addition to Eastern Meditation, Sherri discovered a whole new world in Movement Meditation, or Ecstatic Dance. The aspect of movement allowed her to reconnect to her body and align mind, body and spirit. Through a combination of these practices, she has found balance and peace. It is her pleasure and honor to share from her experiences by facilitating Dance on the Wild Side.
