Ecstatic Dance with Suzy Hawkfire
After almost 10 years of marriage to a man who was on a self destructive path, and having given herself fully to the beautiful, selfless role of mothering, Suzy found herself in my mid-thirties no longer recognizing, nor respecting, the woman she saw in the mirror. The person she had become had lost her fire, her laughter, her enchantment with life. Suzy has cultivated a deep connection with the divine, practicing meditation, yoga, and energy work, and now she offers the gift of ecstatic dance, which she will be bringing to this year’s gathering. No dance experience required! Move that energy through you!
