Dear Dreaming and Dancing Women,

Want to try a new way of exploring dreaming through the body, mind & soul?

Come experience free-style dance, relaxation, guided journeying and art-making to access more of your soul's desire and destiny.

Caro provides a rich offering for dreamwork. In opening circle we share a dream image, or dream we'd like to realize in our lives - for the definition of dreams encompasses night dreams, as well as daydreams, guided meditations that aid our wishes, and dream incubation for answers to our questions. From this moment of sharing, of communal contact, she takes us through a relaxation sequence, a warm-up, followed by dance, sometimes with our eyes closed as we enter our dreams, sometimes with our eyes open as we realize them. We dance with each other; we affirm each other. After another guided visualization into our own underwater cave with dolphins, we write or draw in our journals. Our creativity overflowing. Then we dance, combining the rich experience of the workshop in our movement. Coming to closing circle we each offer a simple movement, image or just a word to the group. In the tea shop afterwards we talk about everything. Caro's Dreaming In the Dark sessions are nurturing, fun, warm, depth-full.

Come and dive into the world of dreaming through the DOWH practice of relaxation, movement and guided imagery, plus expressive and visual art-making.

In this way you will witness and experience the unfolding of your own magic through the journey of relaxation, the gathering of intuitive and symbolic gifts, the embodying of wisdom through fluid movement and dance, the harvesting of your treasures through art and journaling.

With music and dance, pen and paper, drawings and journeys, you will explore the many facets of dreaming while safely and sacredly nourishing yourself to joy, laughter and clarity.

The 6 week series will explore 1 stage each week.
Enjoy the full 6 week process or dip your toe in drop-in style.

We will explore in  Dreaming In the Dark what the indigenous people call :

The Sacred Night Dream; Creating  and Magic
The Day Dream; Healing Time and Mystery- and Accepting the Place of Not Knowing
The Living Dream; Destiny and Fulfillment.


No previous dance or art-making experience needed.
