BIPOC BTD
Apr

BIPOC BTD

Each of us carry A tremendous wisdom and worth within our body.

Shame is what keeps us from experienceing the love and transformation we deserve.

White people and [Black, Indigenous] People of Color [(BIPOC)] each have work to do separately and together [with respect to addressing somatic healing and transforming ancestral trauma.]

We all carry ancestral wisdom and words that need to be felt, expressed and moved with.

Body Temple Dance is a somatic healing practice that includes guided movement, meditation, and opening to the Divine support that's just waiting for us to arrive. Dance with it. Dance with us.

You don't need any previous dance experience for this practice. This space is for you to explore, to sense, to feel. To feel whatever it is that's moving through you right now. This is a practice to honor that, and we're here to support and celebrate you in all that you are. I hope to see you in this special class.

We are here for you spiritual and somatic questions and needs.Body Temple Dance was created by Adriana Rizzolo and her students whom she has witnessed move through the process of living disconnected into living in full expression.

This class is free for all BIPOC - please sign up here

Unleashed Teacher Training

May ‘24- January ‘25

9-month Body Temple Dance Facilitation Training + Mentorship
A somatic and spiritual mentorship to awaken your next layer of purpose, pleasure, and passion

For the healers, coaches, therapists, sacred rebels, the artists who came to create change, the lovers who refuse to play small.

Are you ready to dive into Awakening heart-led healing somatic movement and meditation, expand your Energetic and somatic education, transform your relationships and life by OWNING THIS NEXT LAYER OF YOUR GIFTS?!

DO you need support in putting your offerings out into the world in a way that feels authentic and have a space to both surrender and strategize your next layer of service into the world?

This training is the first of it’s kind…

in that we are sinking in over a longer period of time so we can move as slowly and sustainably as possible. So we can dive in together online but also be immersed in the day-to-day of our lives and living fully alive.

Join our community that cares about both spirituality and our nervous system and integrating through our somatic experience. We work with the intersection between the subtle body and our physiology. The elements within and without.

We do Goddess Sadhana and worship to learn how to both awaken and harness the energy of worth, beauty, eros, love, intuition, creativity, devotion, and healing. The Goddesses we work with are from the Tantric Tradition–Durga, Kali, Lakshmi, Saraswati, and the Black Madonna and Mary Magdalene.

We teach you how to channel energy through your body via Tantra, and the living experience of freeing trauma from our systems–opening to the wildly creative and intuitive humans we are. The artist within and the one who knows how to heal when given the space to do so.

Temple of Shakti Womens Retreat
May
16
to May 20

Temple of Shakti Womens Retreat

Have you ever felt Love so deeply you know it HAD to be more about God than the person?

Have you ever felt disconnected from those in your life? Do you struggle with putting others on pedestals and relying on them for your happiness and connection to Love, aka God?

Or maybe you just love Goddess aka Earth so much you feel continuous grief and gratitude all at the same time?

Do you want to change the pattern of attracting the unavailable and being abandoned in your relational field?

We will spend five days in deep ceremony, worshipping with our Body through song, Earth rituals, dance, intimacy and relational practices, embodied touch, yoga and Yoni mirror and mapping practice, self touch (consent-based only)

What does embodiment mean in the context of our spiritual practice? How do we dance in both dissolution and being humans here to serve?

Our connection to the Body acts as an intermediary in our spiritual journey. The feeling you have when alone in nature, sitting in the sun remembering the Love within you, crying at the feet of loss and betrayal, awakening in the pain of your core wound in ways that help you let go into a new layer of love - this is all a part of our path.

I have always been someone who thinks weddings are kinda weird, but I am also deeply romantic.

All the great mystics spoke through poetry and song of being brides to the Lord of Love Herself. Together we will create a cauldron that transforms our relational experiences of Love through tending to our connection to Absolute Love.

To worship the Goddess Earth, Kali, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Lalita, Mary Magdalene, and Black Madonna/Isis of course!

We will explore the dating phase with fun and explorations including:

🌹 Yoni worship, self mapping and mirror practice,

🌹 The pain and ecstasy of this union through sacred singing and creative movement

🌹 Prepare ourselves to receive the direct transmission of eternal Love through Earth based ritual

🌹 Writing vows, creating messy art, eating meals together, offering prayers to the Temple of Love

🌹 Fire ceremony and Goddess ritual dance

🌹First moon blood right of passage ritual

🌹 Inner teen awakening rage and right relationship

We are going to dismantle the patterns in our system that believe love has to hurt all the time. We’re going to reimagine a world where God was not separate from us and the Earth, but within everything in existence, waiting for our acknowledgment.

Ancestral Wisdom Retreat

Photo by Thais Aquino

in this 6-day immersion you will nourish your body, heart, soul, and mind, where everything is connected to the land, traditions and rich history of puglia, south of italy

This is an experiential group immersion offering trauma-informed somatic and spiritual approaches to healing through movement, writing, sacred touch, and nature based ritual.

Part of my lineage of this womb healing work comes from Italy and the Mediterranean. And these pre-Christian rituals where women and Gay and Trans men would gather to dance and chant and exorcise these energies of oppression.

Together, we will learn to worship the body through movement, nature rituals, exploring the medicine of the rose & the sword, the sacred heart & steady spine and receive an initiation into the rose lineage & the body temple healing arts.

We will offer Body Temple Dance, yoga, writing, space to rest, self-massage and simple partner exercises, nature rituals, and voice work through devotional singing & chanting.

We will also have transformative group healing sessions, which are a powerful way to release the built up tension & restriction in our system, and return to our natural state of flow and ease in love.

Embodied boundaries - free 2 day body temple dance ritual

How do we stay steady when the worlds around us are cracking open or breaking down? Or when our lover is stuck in a complex (or we are) or a client is unhappy or frustrated?

Real-life things can take us to new heights on that soul-human level, the ones where we learn and grow from our mistakes.

Where we stop blaming and start believing what we all came here for, each of us unique and artistic, is enough.

Everything we do is about relating, and we all have an unconscious.

The more we make space for what hurts, the greater we can serve.

This is the path of the Wounded Healer. Not over-identifying with the wounded or the healed, but holding the paradox and allowing the unknown into the room.

Keeping it real.

Come join us in unraveling your worth from men

Through movement, mantra and the medicine of somatic education, we make space for healing how we relate.

Body Temple Dance
Apr

Body Temple Dance

Body Temple Dance is a somatic and spiritual wholistic approach and movement made for you to inhabit your body’s authentic pleasure, love, and aliveness.

This movement language and practice welcomes both the shadow and divinity.

Together we weave trauma-informed foundations based on nervous system education, embodied sex education, and traditional Tantric energy healing for self-healing and integration.

Everything we perceive about ourselves and the world comes from the state of our nervous system, yet none of us were taught how to work with this.

We all want to open to greater pleasure, reclaim our passion and live our soul’s purpose but there is a process of slowing and sustainable growing our valley of capacity for receiving.

BT Dance is a practice of prayer in movement with what is and learning how to be with discomfort without shutting down, running away, or attacking.

It is for those who wish to go deeper into the sacred world of somatics, feminine healing arts, movement, and expression as the ultimate healer of intimacy blocks, trauma, and reclaiming our purpose to love here on Earth.

Free Lakshmi Fire Ceremony
Apr

Free Lakshmi Fire Ceremony

WORTHY: A Lakshmi somatic workshop on womb healing, intimacy and wild pleasure releasing our unhealed patterns around money and men!

I was introduced to the Shakti (power/energy) of Lakshmi in a workshop in Brooklyn about 7 or 8 years ago by Sally Kempton – an amazing teacher from a lineage I have learned much of my meditation and healing inner work from called Kashmir Shaivism.

Since then Lakshmi has shown up, and I've been practicing returning to her again and again over the years when I need something sustainable amidst so much uncertainty.

In moments when I can't hold or Mother myself, when the overwhelm of feeling is too much and I need some space to feel so big and still be beautiful. It's kind of how you run to the ocean when you just can't take it anymore, but when you can't get there the vibration of the Lakshmi's mantra can take you there inside.

Every month we gather around the fire to be reminded that we can transform and be nourished. Even amidst challenges and uncertainty when we come together, we heal.

This workshop is FREE and everyone is welcome - read more and register here to receive the link

Love Recovery

Love Recovery

a monthly somatic session exploring addictive patterns for sober and sober curious folks

With BRANDY CUNNINGHAM

“I was never addicted to one thing; I was addicted to filling a void within myself with things other than my own love.” - Yung Pueblo

I am intimately familiar with the insanity of this cycle.

Filling holes with things that never fit.

Endlessly searching for the next thing to make me feel better. Constantly seeking pleasure or avoiding pain. Never able to BE WITH MYSELF.

Even in sobriety, I was stuck in the frequency of addiction. I replaced alcohol with many different things: food, relationships, sex, love, seeking approval, being a certain weight, etc… Until one after another, all those things failed me…and then…I still kept trying to make them work.

They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results. But, I have always wondered what you call it when you KNOW it won’t be any different and you still keep doing it. This is my definition of addiction.

I NEVER FOUND RELIEF in simply giving up anything. I only began to feel truly satiated when I started filling myself with LOVE. Even and especially in moments where I didn’t believe I deserved it. Turns out I was looking for love all along, just in ALL the wrong places. Where I turn for that love MATTERS. That is what this community is about for me. Creating a space where folks who are struggling with addiction (aka all of us) can come and be held in love.

This class is open to everyone. To register please make a donation - no one is turned away due to lack of funds please email us if you are in need ❤️

Wild Body Speaks

INNNER WORTH: ERotic body, grief as love and ridiculously radical honesty embodied writing Workshop

2/28/24 11-1p PST online + RECORDED

“TWO SOULS CAN ACCESS EACH OTHER WITHOUT AN INCARNATION.” – RAM DASS

In our culture we need a reason to grieve, feel joy, we try and explain our pain away. The mystics, and my own experience of losing loved ones, has taught me that the pain is a worthy guest. A doorway to the depths of your love and most soul satisfying expression and service too,

WE NEED TO WRITE AND HEAR WHAT IS INSIDE US OUTSIDE!

We are wired for attachment when we are very little, and grief work has to do with the trauma of the heart chakra, intimacy and how willing we are to relate.

If we never surrender to our pain, we keep ourselves from feeling the love we deserve. I know It’s not easy to do, or always possible even, we work in layers, but it is possible with the right acceptance and acknowledgment.

Grieving has a place at our table as the fierce, and ultimately loving, wise teacher.

We often feel like an outsider or outcasted when we feel anything tender in the heart at all in a world where vulnerability is just started to be seen as a power.

Grief, like most great things in life, has no expiration within us while we remain in these beautiful, complex and wild human incarnations.

There is Shakti, a power that gets awakened in you when you are initiated into the land of loss. It feels similar to being confused, in the fog and mist of unknown and uncertainty, but it is much less disconnected from reality than we credit ourselves and others for being when they are grieving.

You become much more in tune with reality, meaning awake to the sustenance of life as it is here in this dimension on Earth.

Join Adriana for 2 hours of exploration, embodied writing, unloosing your authentic voice and tenderness in Wild Body Speaks!

Come embark on a journey of self-discovery, guided by a supportive and empowering community, as we embrace our queerness and tap into the magic that resides within our souls. - With Adriana Rizzolo and Jeff Hinshaw

Black Moon Lilith is a complex, wild, and mysterious archetype that has many different interpretations and representations throughout cultures around the world. The information provided in this course offers direction and guidance to help you step into your very highest and most liberated expression.

This course is for anyone who wants to heal shame, explore suffering as part of the path of embodied love, alchemize pain into pleasure for the purpose of service, and work with grief, loss and death as a spiritual practice.

Through a trauma-informed and somatic lens, we will navigate the intricate energies of Black Moon Lilith, diving into its profound symbolism and healing potential. Discover how this enigmatic point in your chart can illuminate your authentic self-expression, liberation, sexuality, and reclaiming of personal power. Learn how to expand your capacity for love, money, and pleasure. Connect to your ancestral roots and work with the elements to heal through connecting to this placement in your chart.

What’s included in this virtual course:

🌑 A self-guided course with 1 introduction video, and 12 audio recordings (one for each sign)

🫂 A ritual/somatic exercise with each recording (12 total!!)

♥️ Live gathering Feb 18 12 - 1p PST

Join Nora Logan for this 2-hour writing and Body Temple Dance workshop to explore the ways your body can help you write your story and embodiment practices can help you get into a writing flow when you’ve felt stuck or like the words won’t come.

There is true wisdom available in the body when we get slow enough to notice it - and there are also valuable release valves available when we move fast enough to circumvent the thinking mind. That's the tension that we'll be working with in this workshop. Mostly, it will be a FUN way to welcome the darker days that are coming our way in community. Movement, and especially dance, can help access the language of your heart and emotions, allowing your body to speak its truth.
