Join us for an evening of a conscious dance blending
Open Floor Movement Practice and Azul Conscious Movement.
$33 per person
Please arrive a few minutes early to settle in. Arrival music will begin at 4:45.
The first session will begin at 5:00 pm. Doors will close at 5:15 pm.
We will open with a warm-up and dance with Sarah, pause for a short break, and complete our journey with movement and closing led by Stephanie.
Sarah’s exploration:
The Dance says to us, “You are Welcome here.” What happens when we approach our movement practice with a sense of acknowledging and moving with everything that’s alive in and around us? Let’s orient and resource ourselves, bringing awareness to what emerges freshly when we drop in and listen together.
Stephanie’s session:
As 2025 comes to completion, this movement inquiry invites us to breathe, ground, and anchor into our center. Together, we’ll explore the pillars of Pause and Presence how listening and allowing spaciousness can help us meet what life is asking of us, both on and off the dance floor.
What to bring:
Water bottle
Layers of comfortable clothing
Journal and pen
About us
We met on the dance floor, at a 5Rhythms workshop in Asheville, NC and have been frequenting the same embodied movement spaces ever since. We have a shared love of dance as a practice, which led to a call to teach.
Sarah found home on the conscious dance floor 10 years ago in Bozeman, MT and has broadened and deepened her practice in various modalities before completing the Open Floor teacher training in early 2024. Her experience and certification in the embodiment practice of Focusing deeply informs her approach to movement, grounded in an attitude of making space for all parts of ourselves and each other.
Stephanie began her dancing journey at a 5Rhythms dance class while in college more than 20 years ago; and she has been on a dancing path ever since– inspired by the experience of conscious movement as a sacred, spiritual practice. She became a part of the Asheville dance community in 2002, and became certified to teach Azul Conscious Movement in 2022, a path of embodied awakening founded by Amara Pagano.
The seeds of our collaboration began to sprout last October during an Azul workshop at The Horse Shoe Farm.
What emerged was an invitation
a reminder that when we follow the body’s truth,
new pathways open.
Join us as we explore where movement
wants to take us next.
