10am Nia Class

FOCUS: The 7 chakras

INTENT: To stimulate an interactive relationship with the physical body layers you can touch and see, and with the energetic and spiritual layers you cannot see but can sense and connect with.

EXPANDED INTENT : The intent of ResOnance is to use Nia movement, mindfulness to become aware of the location and personality of the 7 chakras and to use movement to stimulate an interactive relationship with your body and the human energy field composed of the physical body layer you can touch and see, and composed of energy, mental, emotional, and spiritual layers you cannot see but can sense, feel, and touch using a multi-sensory approach of hands-on, felt-sense, mindful intent, and imagination.

A great way to get immediate information is to change what you do or how you do it. That is why in FreeDance movement creativity is so powerful. It changes what you do. A little bit of shift and change brings more awareness to you, your body and to the Voice of the Body, which is sensation.

The central nervous system – the brain and spinal cord – is in charge of sending and receiving information. It is designed to process a lot of different information simultaneously and to keep our senses alert.

MUSIC PLAYLIST

Based on the Gaelic words, Saor meaning freedom and saoil meaning to imagine, the music of ResOnance , Saioule integrates the sound and resonance of the crystal bowls with the transformative voice of Shannon Day. Created in freedom and through her imagination, as a journey through the seven chakras, the music of Saioule takes you on a sound and sensory journey into a most magical environment of resonant sound healing. Saioule (sai – ool) is the perfect resonant landscape to inspire self-healing, health, wellness, and holistic conditioning.

Each song in ResOnance begins with the sound of the crystal bowls, the resonant sound of a chakra. It is followed by vocalist Shannon Day’s breath and voice, creating the perfect sonic landscape to experience listening, sensing, and dancing to the music with the 7 chakras. This integrative method of sound and voice encourages the physical liberation and vibration in your seven chakra energy centers, supporting sympathetic vibrations to empower and cleanse your emotional body to leave you feeling a stronger physical presence. While your ears will assist you in picking up vibrations, it is your entire body that will pick up vibrations and pulsations your ears cannot. As you listen and dance, consciously listen with your whole body.

The body’s intelligence creates a pathway so that once we do something, the body remembers. If we keep repeating what we do in the same way, then parts of our body that are designed to stay alert can get a little lazy.

Changing what we do can fool our body into thinking,
“We’ve never done this,”
and will keep those sensory parts of us awake and attentive
