Breathwork & Movement for Queer Liberation is a guided journey with a trauma informed lens to dive deep into yourself using breathing techniques and somatic movement. This practice is an active meditation with a connected breathing pattern to help cleanse your energy, process stuck emotions, lean into the heart, and discover expanded states of consciousness at a pace that feels good for you centering autonomy, choices, and Queer liberation.
Option to wear whatever feels good for you and embodies who you are, sequins to jeans, all of it is encouraged!
12:30PM Breathwork led by Alex Duran, founder of Grounded in Color
2:30PM Queer Expression
Queer Expression is creative movement in a Queer + Trans space with no steps to follow, only multi-genre music to intuitively flow to.
It is free room: a space for you to whoop and holler, lay down on the floor, stretch, cry, laugh, stand on your head, or dance your heart out!
Our creative movement practice is more of a "play space" for all ages. We provide plenty of crafts and books for those who do not feel called to dance, instruments for noisemaking, ribbons for twirling, a giant beach ball, balloons, and even a jumbo rainbow parachute to run under! Everyone is welcome and encouraged to intuitively participate.
All you need to do is show up! ...but you are encouraged to bring
• a journal + a pen
• a sketchbook / craft projects
• a blanket/pillow to sit on
• juggling or flow props
• a comfort object (a stuffed animal, security blanket, sweater, etc.)
• ear plugs/headphones in case of overstimulation (if needed)
• snacks
• lots of water
