A Breathwork & Conscious Dance Designed to Facilitate Your Full Expression
About This Event:
The Flying Sage & Crossing Worlds are excited to bring you our very first Lumio in Victoria, BC. Dive into a Conscious Dance & Breathwork experience like no other, where freedom, presence, and embodiment take center stage. This is a medicine-friendly and alcohol-free gathering, where expression and movement are the language we speak. This is an event designed to facilitate your full expression.
At these events, we will dedicate time at the start for a facilitated breathwork and embodiment experience followed by an ecstatic dance.
For this inaugural event in Victoria, Sara Jade from Radiance + Ritual and Gabriel from Inhale Life Collective will be offering a rhythmic and grounding breathwork experience before we transition to dance facilitated by our talented DJs including Brit Sharpe @ Rave Coach.
In the heart of this experience lies a simple but profound ethos: Freedom.
Leave judgments at the door as you step into an evening full expression and human beauty. To achieve this, we have a few simple rules that we ask everyone to follow on the dance floor. These rules are inspired by Ecstatic Dance LA but are modified slightly in that we welcome safe, conscious and intentional use of medicine.
BE FREE. DANCE HOW YOU WANT. NO JUDGEMENT.
BE PRESENT. NO PHONES. NO CAMERAS.
BE CLEAR. NO ALCOHOL. MINDFUL MEDICINE CONSUMPTION.
BE EMBODIED. NO TALKING.
BE CONSENSUAL. IF IT’S NOT A CLEAR YES, IT’S A NO.
By sharing in this agreement together, our dance floor can become a canvas for embodiment, allowing us all to dive deep into the music, rhythm and our own inner space.
Lumio is a collective vision that we are co-creating with our incredible community. It's where expansive states of consciousness merge within the power of dance and community.
Come, let's be free, let's transcend, and let's dance together.
