An Expansive New Year’s Ceremony & Celebration Designed to Facilitate Your Full Expression.
About This Event:
The Flying Sage is excited to invite you to Emergence; our third ecstatic New Year’s ceremony. We’re calling on anyone who wishes to celebrate the New Year in an expansive and intentional way. Prepare for an incredibly activated dance floor, breathwork ceremony and sound bath that will emerge us into 2025 together in a powerful & connected way.
This is one of the largest event offerings we put on with The Flying Sage and last year’s ceremony was nothing short of magical. This event is perfect for anyone who wants to celebrate their New Year’s in an intentional and connected way with other conscious minded people who love to dance, express and celebrate.
Additional Information:
This event will be alcohol free and our team will create a strong, sacred and safe container to facilitate the emergence of your truest expressions. For the Conscious Dance stage, we will maintain a silent and phone-free dance floor for the first portion of the night so that those dancing can truly drop in with one another through movement. After midnight, we will open up the space for more celebration and socializing - this means more relaxed rules for the dance floor. Throughout the entire night, dedicated spaces will be available for those that desire to be internal or to chat with others.
