Shapeshifting
“Stories and legends about shapeshifting, but they do tend to come out of indigenous cultures with
strong animistic traditions and cultures where people have lived in such a way that the membrane
between the human and the non-human world is very thin. And so, I wonder if they don't also
represent a different way of thinking, not just about what's imaginary, but about what's real.”
~ Sharon Blackie ~

The Sufis believe that there’s a world between the physical world and the intellect. This place is called the imaginal world. They believe that this world is as real as what we see with our eyes. By traveling and connecting to the imaginal, we engage with the deepest levels of life and reality.
In this workshop, we will embody this immersion with the natural world and the animals through the 5Rhythms practice.
We will dance with our animal allies, take in the animal's spirit into our body, and become the magic that moves through all of us. In this, we find our way back to ourselves and each other.

Throughout time and space, our ancestors have come together to heal, grieve, and pray.
As a musician and a healer, I have never known a space where these ancient ways
