Embodied Remembering
Wings & Tail
Retreat for Women
With Denise Rowe & Sophia Efthimiou
Three days of embodied movement, voice exploration and ceremony,
to rediscover our innate freedom
and find home in our bodies, hearts and spirits
Wings and Tail has been a long time in the dreaming, and we are delighted to be co-holding this space together after many years of friendship and many adventures in movement, voice, earth and spirit.
