"FREEDOM" Sukha Saturday - An Evening of Socializing and Movement for WOMEN

  • Kindred Collective 2800 Forum Blvd Columbia United States (map)

Sukha. In sanskrit this means "good space".

Although we normally gather on the SECOND Saturday of each month, we are practicing our FREEDOM to move in response to the environment and are meeting on the THIRD Saturday.

We meet together to create space "good space". A space dedicated to nourishing us - as individuals, as community, as women, as spirit beings living in our sensing, moving human bodies, as the creators of change!

I offer this as a ritual space and time for living, loving, moving, being, transforming and celebrating yourself and the women & girls of our community!

The July 8th Sukha's theme will be FREEDOM.
The great Audre Lorde once said, “Without community there is no liberation.” In this same vein I also add “Without connection, there is no freedom.” We will inquire and explore into the experience of freedom in this Sukha!

If you have a piece of music that resonates with this intention, please let Victoria know at embodimentllc@gmail.com

If you’d like to help during set up, during the event or during breakdown, please send a message to Victoria. Thanks.
