Joni Bee

Workshop Description:

Shake ‘n Groove is an exploration of Shaking Medicine and Groove Dance weaved together with a stunning soundscape. Your journey is facilitated by the conscious loving couple Joni Bee from NZ and Keith Motes from the USA.

Shaking Medicine arises from a mostly forgotten instinctive intelligence within us all. It guides us into a spontaneous-therapeutic tremoring that stems from our autonomic nervous system. We allow an involuntary shake to move through us, which is nothing like ordinary shaking. It encourages even deeper parasympathetic states of relaxation and release the way the mammals in nature do.

Groove Dance encourages organic movement through rhythm and sound, invites us to use different ranges of motion to curiously explore our own intuitive expression in ways many of us would not ordinarily do. There’s the age old saying of “move it or lose it” and Groove dance gets us to do just that! We’ll add to our movement toolkit for better health and joy of being in a body, walking this Earth.

The dance enhances the shake and the shake enhances the dance.

Join us on this powerfully held journey as we step in, warm up our thirteen joints, get groovin’, explore Shaking Medicine, floor-play our warm down, and mindfully step out into a colourful day.

Come with your curiosity and the intention to shake ‘n groove. EveryBODY welcome. No physical level or experience required. Each journey is unique for everyone.
