SINGING OUR BODIES AWAKE :

Daylong Women's Yoga & Singing Retreat

With Jackie Long (Yoga) & Betsy Rose (Singer/Songleader)

Description
Come renew your spirit, heart and body with the magic of women making music together, sharing the practice of mindfulness through yoga, sound, and improvisation. Betsy and Jackie will guide you on a journey to find your voice, sing inspiring songs and connect with your body compassionately.

We will gather at Sacred Stream in Berkeley to enjoy a refreshing day of song, meditation, mindful yoga, swimming, potluck lunch and more.

Betsy's singing circles are always an inclusive, heart opening experience, and your singing "skills" are not an issue. Your voice is welcome, in whatever shape it's in - and we find that even the shyest voice grows stronger and more confident in the company of such supportive, non judgmental and congenial gals.

Similarly, as with Jackie's yoga classes, your yoga "poses" are not important. It's your relationship with your unfolding experience that matters most. Your body is welcome, in whatever shape it's in! No prior yoga experience is necessary. We find that when we honor the body, not the ego, the body relaxes and unfolds in its most natural way.

Where:
Sacred Stream Center
2149 Byron Street, Berkeley 94702

When:
Saturday, June 14 ~ 10:00am to 4:30pm

Facilitators:
Betsy is a singer-songwriter, community song leader and mindfulness teacher who leads Womansong Circles— a no-audition, no rehearsal, no performance group singing experience. Singing with women in this spirit opens the heart, taps into our joy and connects us with each other.

Jackie is a Marriage & Family Therapist who teaches gentle, mindfulness-based yoga. She offers us encouragement to dive inside and listen to the still, quiet voice within as we move and breathe together
