This is a time and space to deepen into receiving the
ancient/ future transmission of the deep feminine – a transmission
that is nested deep down in our wombs, in our uterus, in our moments
of remembering, in our non-rational, intuitive, flowing, magical field –
the one that we dare to enter when we feel grounded and safe enough.

If you have never danced before and would like to find out more – come and be gently introduced to this ancient dance form, and feel the magic field of all the other dancing Shakties. There is a lot to be learned and received from other women’s dropping into their bodies’ remembering.

One of the beauties and pleasures of this dance, is that every woman’s dance is unique, and passes through various qualities and textures as she grows and changes back to her original shape. It is such a pleasure to be with each other as we trust our own flowing effortless bodies, allowing our cellular, energetic uncoiling from millennia of Slumber, allowing the flow to return us to our receptivity and receiving the knowing that is there for us to drink from.

In awe of the spiritual knowledge offered through this ancient sacred sensual movement,
Elisabeth.
I offer weekly groups, and one-day Shiva-Shakti events. See the below for more information, and also please feel free to contact me

But….
Dance at your own risk!
This sensual sacred dance breaks taboos.
The taboo against being in our power as a woman.
The taboo against our sacred sexuality.
The taboo against awakening our womanly power center-the WombSpace.
The taboo against pleasure, and pain.
The taboo against Knowledge.
Don’t eat the apple!
by Vajra Ma…….and ancient future sisterhood.

Weekly drop-in Shiva Shakti Cafe:

This coming year we are going to continue marinating together under the moons, and joining with sisters in California and Spain (they will be dancing at the same time on the same day of the week as us), to cultivate and weave the pathways through our bodies – to keep remembering and receiving the transmission of the divine feminine and feel our collectively in the divine matrix.

Through these moons ahead we are going to be dancing together as an open group, so that we have the opportunity to continue each month and come to rest more deeply in our cyclical nature and the moods and tones that are the guiding intelligence of our lives.

So we are going to dance in a drop-in basis through June and July to deepen our awareness of our cycle of ascents and descents, through listening and uncoiling intimately into our depths.

Here are the dates for your diary for this next summer series in 2011:
June 2 9/16/23/30
July 7/14/21/28

Financial contribution: £8 Venue: the dining room at Foxhole, Dartington. It is next to the dining room.

Time: We will start at 7.30pm and finish at around 9.15pm

Virtual café:

You can begin immediately by joining us at the virtual Shakti Café every Thursday from 7.00 to 7.30!
By a ‘virtual’ session, I mean that we will be dancing in our own homes, all at the same time, and sharing a united, energetic field. These sessions are linked to an ongoing collective e-mail, in which we can share our full range of experiences, from fear to numbness to deep pleasure and connectedness, and our collective wisdom – so that we can all drink from the authenticity of an awakening feminine sisterhood. This Shakti café is linked to other Shakties in the US and Spain, who dance on the same day of the week and at the same time, so the field created is wide, and keeps us connected in the divine matrix. The dialogue is an important part of this – it keeps us from the learned behaviour to isolate and separate from the support and wisdom of the collective – so please keep sharing.

Trusting that this will support both newcomers and those who want to drop deeper into this evocative dance, and the wisdom and beauty of our cyclical nature.

For everyone who wants to begin joining us on these Thursdays do arrive at 7.00 for a little orientation, also you can buy a DVD by clicking here and this will help you to get a deeper understanding of the dance and also be useful as a guide to begin your practice at home.

Eager to continue deepening into our delicious painful knowing, and our bringing this gift as feminine women into our lives and the world.
With devotion and love for all we are,

Elisabeth
