18 - 25 August 2023: BlissDance Retreat with Shakti Shiva Academy & Kali Satyagraha Widd

Dancing the Tantric Sutras of Ecstatic Love, Sex, Death and Rebirth

Hosted by Shakti Shiva Academy.

Bliss is not simply a state of happiness; rather it is the capacity to remain fully embodied and consciously present to the totality of everything in existence - the good, the bad, the ugly, the shadow, the light, the losses, the gains, the pleasure, the pain, the known and the unknown.

So, true blissful awakening is an orientation to life, rather than any emotional state.

BlissDance is designed to safely support us to shed the layers of illusion obscuring the true-blue view of reality within. As a Tantric practice of Totality, it leaves nothing out. And there is no hierarchy or preference for any condition or experience – everything is welcome in embodied consciousness: a very rare invitation indeed!

When we compassionately unravel the old belief systems and unconscious habits, we can tap into our true nature, and embody the blissful space within which everything already arises and falls away, exactly as it is. This is ecstasy, this is bliss.

BlissDance invites you to bring your sadness and tears, bring your joy and playfulness, bring your brokenness, and perfect imperfection, bring your shadow, and bring your light - all of you is welcome here.

If movement and music is your medicine, then this retreat might be exactly what you long for right now. And the movement embodiments are yours to practice for life. To keep you true to truth, and in your bliss.

“The more I dance, the more I feel.
Feeling is healing.
The more I feel, the more I appear.
The mind asks the questions
The body reveals the answers.
Open body. Open mind.
I dance, therefore I am.”
~ Kali Satyagraha Widd
