YES. This membership is for anyone who desires to experience a fuller range of embodied expression, a greater sense of empowerment and deeper fulfillment in life.
Dance is just the vehicle through which we get to explore & expand our consciousness, together!
Aliza's guidance and the practices offered will support you in transforming your fears, doubts, and limiting beliefs into self-acceptance, empowered ease, grace, freedom, authentic expression, playfulness & embodied confidence.
The Sanctuary membership includes 3 LIVE classes with Aliza each week:
Mondays @ 12pm ET (50min) - opening circle + 40min dance
Wednesdays @ 8pm ET (45min) - 30min dance, 15min yoga nidra
Fridays @ 9am ET (30min) - just straight up 30min of dance!
Mariposa Monday (60min) @ 12pm ET is the one membership class open to the public. In this drop-in class (60min) you can expect a brief "arrival dance" warm up followed by a grounding meditation. Then, a brief opening circle with transmission from Aliza & community guidelines, followed by a 40min guided dance wave & closing circle.
The Wednesday Wind Down (45min) @ 8pm ET is a "get right to it" 30 minute dance journey for followed by 15 minutes of savasana (rest) and yoga nidra (guided relaxation meditation) to clear your mind & your energy field mid-week. For members only.
The Friday Finale (30min) @ 9am ET is a "no fuss" dance journey to release your week & enter your weekend with a lighter heart, mind & body. Just 30 minutes of dance, straight up, then go on with the rest of your day! For members only.
*Aliza guides primarily free-form, improvisational/intuitive movement but at times offers structured movement warm ups and sequences.
Absolutely! All LIVE classes are recorded & uploaded to the portal within 48 hours.
The music/playlist from each class will be linked to the corresponding video in the on-demand video library!
Aliza will also post each playlist in the Telegram chat, and a member has graciously created a Google doc with all of Aliza's playlists as well!
In the Sanctuary video library you will have access to:
-all of Aliza's guided Zoom dance journeys from the last two years
-all of our LIVE classes recorded & uploaded within 48 hours
-special themed journeys recorded by Aliza for Sanctuary members only (example: dancing with grief or rage, dancing to soothe anxiety, dancing to get inspired, etc.)
-shorter 15min movement "minis" to reset your mind & body between meetings
& more!
Our class recordings are housed in the video library on the Mariposa Movement website. There is a private page specifically for Sanctuary. When you join the Membership, you'll receive instructions on how to access our Community Portal via the website.
Mariposa Monday is open to the public, so the link is different each week.
Once you become a Sanctuary Member, the link for each Mariposa Monday class will be emailed to you on Sunday evening.
The links for our other live classes (Wednesday & Friday) will be posted to the portal.
Since these classes are for members only, the links will remain the same each week!
Everything will be recorded for you to access at your own time in case you can't make a live call.
There is nothing lost in the transmission through joining the replay. Aliza creates the sessions so that it is just as beneficial to watch later as it is in real time.
