Are you ready to step away from grief, trauma, and stress and take a restorative journey toward joy, healing, and connection? Join us for the ‘Moving Towards Joy’ workshop, a powerful two-hour experience that combines movement, introspection, and journaling to guide you toward a more joyful and peaceful self.  No prior dance experience is needed. Come as you are, and let's move towards joy together.
