Prayer music has been at the core of my life for the last 15 years. Kirtan is a key part of the happiness I find in this life, and keeps lifting me up. Medicine music and ceremonies keep my prayers anchored.
Saturday morning, sweat your prayers in Vinyasa w/ Live Music … I’m on the beats, instruments and prayers - and @lawrencejay__ is teaching the full-power vinyasa. 9-1030am at @theyogabarn .
Then join us in the evening for a special medicine & kirtan ceremony with @hanumanproject and @_giselle.world_ at @radiantlyaliveyoga . Deep prayers and yummy cacao.

I feel most alive by the ocean. The expansive view, wind in my face, crashing waves, and vibrant colors in and out of the water - all make me so grateful and awe-inspired by this planet, everytime. Surfing for the last 19 years of my life has been more than a sport, it’s been a spiritual awakening into myself. The emotions and realizations that come up in the water are profound. From teaching me patience to wait for waves, surrendering my fear when a big wave is going to smash me, to teaching me to be very selective and confident when it’s my time to catch a ride. Ultimately, this lifestyle activity creates a profound presence.
I’m stoked to be coming back to Uluwatu tomorrow with our band @hanumanproject to chant down on the cliffs above the Temples surf break at @the_istana . Come sing kirtan with us and enjoy this sunset view. Tickets in bio. 💦🌊🐬💙

I love movement practice. At @hellodance_official in Chengdu, every class begins with stretching and loosening, then some grooves, then they get into the choreo. I’ve never danced choreo before, so learning as quick as they move really stretches my brain and body. It’s not as easy to feel the music as with freestyle, but the process is fun and challenging. The top dancers of each class really move with style and connection to the music… you can see their experience and passion. I’m enjoying trying new things in a vibrant place and connecting more with dance and my body.

Night session in the mall with the Chengdu bboys. Feels great to freestyle to breaks after so much choreo and studies at Hello Dance this week. I feel all the dance classes activating my body - giving me more freedom, moves, intensity and dynamics. Mostly needed to stretch this night after some 15 hours dance sessions the last days, but spent some time working on top rocks and arm balances.

Low res video, but feels pertinent to drop this in my feed right now. An intimate closure to our CulCha Collective last weekend. A collab full of heart and soul, and the freedom to play and express in all directions. Ghija’s singing and Arie’s beatbox provide the unreal support for Cappy’s freestyle in this song I rewrote and flipped from Rising Appalachia’s Chloe’s song “Hungry World”.
It’s been a wild ride of a week, full of emotion for me. From glowing happiness, despair, rage, celebration, pride, terror, and sublime orgasmic bliss. I’m grateful for all of it - grateful for these experiences.
I’m also so proud of CulCha collective for all their hard work and teamwork. Truly a pleasure to cocreate, and our last show opened up a new field of play and satisfaction for us - feeling the hearts woven and full expression. Thank you for meeting me there.
Now I set off solo for china. Ready to go dance with bboys in Chengdu this week and reconnect with my own flow in the way travel does so well. I greatly look forward to the sights and sounds of Chengdu, which become one of favorite places. From there, Beijing Xishuangbanna and Shenzhen.
I post this reel as a capsule into a moment of heart and gratitude. 🙏
Thank you @culchacollective@sound0fsoul@ghija_@faye_jj@ariedixon@kuzyaism@robreckermusic@alexaarcilesi
Good memories from the RISE Yoga Dance facilitator training at @aidi_fjakahealing in Shenzhen in December last year. Preparing these students to lead their own dances is a treat. And to see that the last group of students has held really beautiful dance events is a rewarding feeling. Please reach out if you are interested to learn the art of facilitating freeform dance practice and techniques to use on the dance floor at ecstatic dance. PS - great captures but the photog used a cringe filter on my face features!!

✨ RISE — Ecstatic Dance at Alchemy Yoga & Meditation Center Uluwatu
A weekly invitation to move, release, and reconnect through dance.
RISE is a space where the body leads the way. Where rhythm guides the movement, expression unfolds naturally, and the dance floor becomes a place of shared presence.
Each evening begins with a short guided warm-up to awaken the body and ground the energy. From there, the music opens the space into free-form movement, no choreography, no expectations, simply the freedom to explore your own rhythm.
We close the evening together in a community circle with sacred sound healing and acoustic heart songs, allowing the experience to settle and integrate.
📍 Alchemy Yoga & Meditation Center · Uluwatu
📅 Every Friday Night
Move freely.
Release what needs to move.
Dance together in community.
