Workshop Details

Join Tihikpas and Ellen on the longest day of the year to welcome and celebrate summertime on the sacred land of Esalen.
We will embody the sacred teachings of antiquity brought uniquely together through the framework of tribal ceremony and SpiritDance meditation. Our tribe is not one of bloodlines or lineage; we ask that people of all tribes, beliefs, and color take part in this journey of the mind, body, soul, and spirit. Let’s all dance, sweat, sing, pray, meditate, and relax together as one global tribe.
Tihikpas and Ellen, both elders, have spent their journeys studying diverse spiritual traditions and praying with native peoples around the world. They will guide the group in dance, song, prayer, sweat lodge (optional and weather permitting), ritual, and ceremony. We’ll gather herbs, roots, and flowers for an herbal bath at the Esalen hot springs and exfoliate our skin with sea salt — to detox and cleanse before stepping into summertime. From sunrise to sunset, join us to celebrating summer’s solstice. To learn more about SpiritDance, visit www.MovingVentures.org.
