Laughter Yoga is a playful and fun way to tap into our natural state of joy. When life gets tough - turn to laughter! This is an excellent tool to turn frowns upside down, yet, more importantly, to tap into real states of gratitude and higher vibrations.

Dante will lead you into a comfortable and receptive state to support deep relaxation using sound healing instruments like crystal singing bowls, antique metal singing bowls, wooden drone flutes, pan drum drums, and chimes. Once the sound bath begins, allow the vibrations to soothe the mind, clear any blockages within the body, and guide you into the present moment.

Our sacral chakra is an energy center that houses the most powerful and potent energy in our bodies. It is the nectar from which life is created: whether that is human life, art, music, creativity or in pursuit of our dreams and purpose in this world. It is also a space that often holds many of our deepest woundings, shame and blockages.  Manifestation using our creative life force energy asks for our channels to be clear and to attune our sacral, heart and highest consciousness to one another.  

In this journey together, I will take you on an embodied experience of visualization, breath work and energy activation to liberate and open your channel.  Our ceremony will close with a powerful meditation connecting you to womb consciousness, the portal of all creation, honoring the sacred, divine essence within us all.

This workshop is open to all levels of asana and meditation experience. Dante will lead a 45-minute yin yoga class to prepare the body for sound meditation. Yin Yoga is a style of yoga that focuses on long, passive holds of seated or lying down postures typically held for three to five minutes or longer. It targets the connective tissues, such as the ligaments, fascia, and joints, rather than the muscles, as is the case in many other styles of yoga. Afterward, you will experience a wide variety of sound frequencies. Sound healing uses tuned, deep-vibrational instruments such as wooden flutes, crystals, and metal bowls during meditation, balancing dissonant frequencies in the body and bringing them into harmony.

Naad Yoga is an ancient practice that combines sound and meditation to bring about a profound sense of integration, harmony, and self-love. Rooted in the principles of Vedanta and the universal vibration of "Om," Naad Yoga uses Indian classical music to help participants quiet their minds and connect deeply with their emotions. The workshop explores the 22 primary emotions (shrutis) expressed through the 60 healing ragas of Indian classical music. Participants will experience these emotions and moods through two specific ragas: Bhairo, which aids in cleansing and releasing unhelpful emotions, and Desh, which fosters joy and happiness. This immersive sound journey aims to align the listener’s chakras, promoting emotional and spiritual well-being.
The workshop begins with an introduction to the science of Naad Yoga, followed by a sequence designed to resonate with and activate the lower chakras through deep bass notes (Kharaj). Participants will then engage with Raag Bhairo, encouraging the release of emotional blockages, particularly at the heart and throat centers, complemented by gentle touch healing. This is followed by the uplifting Raag Desh, which promotes joy and celebration. The session concludes with a debrief, sharing experiences, and a Q&A. Throughout, the practice emphasizes the power of enhanced listening and communal chanting (kirtan) to deepen interconnectedness and spiritual awareness, ultimately guiding participants towards discovering the inner teacher within themselves.

I believe that each one of us is an embodied expression of the divine. This workshop is an opportunity for all women and female identifying beings to come together, to sit in prayer, to celebrate and support one another, to take up space, to be seen and heard, to reclaim their power and sovereignty. In the Goddess Initiation, we will co-create a brave space for women and female identifying beings to share from the heart, to practice celebration of self and one another, to dance and pray and awaken their inner Goddess/Goddex. 

The journey will take you from meeting your inner child, to embodying your innate divinity through a series of activities that are curated to connect you deeply to your original essence using guided visualizations, breath work, movement, dance and authentic relating exercises. By remaining open, curious and compassionate to one another’s experiences, we take steps towards healing the sister wounds that permeate our collective and personal experiences and create space to invoke the inner Goddess/Goddex within.

Qi Gong (also spelled Chi Kung or Qigong) is a traditional Chinese practice that involves physical movements, breathing techniques, and meditation to cultivate and balance the body's vital energy, known as "Qi" or "Chi." It is part of traditional Chinese medicine and is considered a holistic approach to health and well-being. 
Qi Gong is based on the belief that the body's vital energy flows through energy channels or meridians and that practicing Qi Gong can improve the flow of Qi, promoting health and healing. The practice typically involves slow, gentle movements synchronized with deep breathing and a meditative focus.

Come join David for a very special immersive sound experience coined the Soul Massage. Participants will be bathed by the sound and vibrations of a massive 54 inch bronze Chau gong accompanied by a 40 inch Nepalese singing bowl gong, a 38 inch Paiste Sedna Planetary gong and a 24 inch Paiste Synodic Moon Planetary gong; very grounding and profound. There will be a short breath work practice before the sound bath to prepare ourselves for meditation. Then everyone will lay down and get as comfy and cozy as possible. Warmth is essential for optimal comfort so be sure to bring plenty of blankets and clothing to ensure this. The heart rate and body temperature drops during this meditation which naturally can cause the hands and feet to get cold easily. Once everyone is comfortable, the sound journey will begin and run for a duration of 60 minutes before coming back out renewed. Come vibrate with us!

Embark on a profound journey of healing and self-discovery at the Cord-Cutting Ceremony, led by Emma Olmedo, at InterFusion Festival X. This transformative workshop is meticulously crafted to guide participants through releasing energetic ties to past relationships, old patterns and reclaiming vibrant, lost aspects of themselves.

Following this, you'll be guided through a serene visualization accompanied by soft acoustic sounds, identify and releasing energies that no longer serve you. Then, immerse yourself in a reiki-charged sound bath, where the resonance of crystal bowls, gongs, and ocean drum will effortlessly facilitate the release of what no longer serves you.

Join David for his own personal fusion blend of foundational Hatha yoga and Kundalini kriya yoga. Utilizing deep powerful breathing techniques combined with continuous repetitive movements, our aim will be to open up and unlock the spine. Applying long holds in static Hatha postures that will steadily evolve into a mindful vinyasa flow state at times, we will strengthen, invigorate and move our bodies together. David’s thorough and meticulously detailed instruction of how we will move and breathe through this practice allows for all levels of experience to feel welcome. Props like blankets, blocks, belts, bolsters are all highly recommended but not required. At the conclusion of the physical portion of the class, we will take an extended savasana where David will bathe all participants in a powerful sound bath with his array of large gongs. This is sure to be a potent experience to top off your Interfusion 2025!
