All Eastwest Workshops include Fraleigh's unique Land to Water Yoga & Chakra Unwinding. Become acquainted with the seven energy vortexes of human life and infant development in processes that have grown over a period of twenty years at Eastwest. In Eastwest workshops, Sondra Fraleigh, Karen Smith, Kelly Ferris, Catherine Schaeffer, Jeanne Schul, Kay Nelson, Angela Graff, Willa Monroe, Brooke Weatherwell and other associates teach the characteristics of the chakras through somatic processes. Learn how to open to the energetic qualities of each chakra in your own body and personal journey.
At Eastwest, we use the models of dance technique, improvisation, and choreography throughout our work. Our approach is basic, so no previous dance study is required. Everyone begins from where they are, and we learn together from there. We bring attention to what is already whole, bodymind unity, and the oneness of all life.
