Join Kate for a Visualization and Journaling Experience that will help reflect and align you with your higher calling. Do you ever ask yourself if this is really what you want in life? If where you are and what you are doing is really for you? Come take some time to visualize and write down your dreams and thoughts and start to realize what it is that truly calls to you.

This experience will begin with some grounding, centering breath work, followed by small movements to help us tune in to our “internal” world. You’ll then be guided through a series of visualizations that ask you to examine yourself, your life, and dream about all the potential there is. You’ll come away having a clearer vision of what it is you’re seeking and some actionable items to help you on the path to get there.

No experience is required. Come with an open mind and open heart!

Wisdom of the Upanishads
Saturday September 13, 2025 11:30am - 12:30pm EDT
Zen Den
Books are cool, and this book is no exception!  The vedanta scriptures open our eyes to a world that is beyond the physical senses, calling upon myths and legends of ancient yogis who were seeking immortality and the deepest secrets of life and consciousness.  ‘The Upanishads’ is a condensed form of the Vedas (hence the name ‘Vedanta’), and the precursor to ‘The Mahabharata’ (Great Tale Of Bharata [India]), a text where we find ‘Bhagavad Gita’ nestled comfortably in the epicenter of the divine vortex.  BG being a culmination of vedic wisdom about God and man’s search for happiness in a world that seems to be trying to kill him all the time.  But ‘The Upanishads’ came first for a reason, and it is that reason we will uncover in this workshop.  This is a rare opportunity to see these texts in an astonishing new way, and will provide countless gems and mysteries for you to meditate on in your personal practice.  
You’ll meet Agni, Vayu, Nachiketas and even Yamaraj; Death himself, in this mythical tome of yogic knowledge.  What question did Death refuse to answer to a young boy who gave his life as an act of faith?  Who or what is Brahman?  Why the chariot and the wheel?  Join us at Transcend to discover a whole new world of Yoga with “Wisdom Of The Upanishads”!!

Prepare to immerse yourself in the pulsating rhythms of the drum, which will guide our practice and serve as the heartbeat for our collective energy. Each beat will resonate deeply, echoing the call to awaken your inner warrior, urging you to confront the shadows that have held you back. Together, we will engage in a series of dynamic Kundalini postures, infusing our movements with intention and the fierce commitment to overcome the limitations we encounter.

This class is a profound ritual of self-exploration and release. As we move and breathe, we will honor the hard work it takes to confront and embrace our deepest fears and blockages. Together, we will emerge renewed, feeling lighter, more connected, and deeply attuned to the divine flow within us.

Meditative Mandalas Make-and-Take
Saturday September 13, 2025 1:30pm - 2:30pm EDT
The Portal
Color yourself calm with some gentle movement, guided meditation, and coloring your very own mandala. Mandalas are mystical symbols, typically circular and geometric in form, and represent wholeness or unified energy. They have played a role in Eastern spiritual development for centuries, and are widely favored as meditational focal points because of their balancing and calming effects. The practice of coloring mandalas is a way not only to focus your mind and calm down your awareness but also to open your heart. As kids, we were constantly doing things with our hands and colors. But as adults, most of us have stopped doing that. We've lost our creative outlet. Until now! Not only is coloring mandalas a fun and creative activity, but it has been shown to have therapeutic benefits such as reducing stress and anxiety, improving focus and concentration, and promoting relaxation. This workshop is open to people of all skill levels, even if you think you're not an artist! We'll begin with some gentle breathwork and movement (no need to bring a yoga mat--we'll do this in our seats), then I'll walk you through a guided visualization to awaken your creative energy. I'll teach you about the meaning of mandalas and the symbolism behind the colors you choose to use, and you'll get to color a beautiful mandala and tap into your inner artist. Workshop limited to 20 participants, FCFS.

This is your time to pause, breathe, and connect deeply with your inner self. Whether you're carrying the weight of past experiences or simply seeking a moment of peace, this session will guide you in finding the balance between releasing and receiving. All are welcome.

This experience includes meditation, transformative somatic breathwork, music, sound healing, and integrative journaling. To prepare please have water, a yoga mat, eye mask or eye covering, journal, & pen nearby.

Let's Breathe!

Energy Medicine Yoga - The 5 Elements
Saturday September 13, 2025 1:30pm - 2:30pm EDT
Mountain Top
Energy Medicine Yoga® is an integrative practice, uniting the ancient healing methods of energy medicine and the time-honored tradition of yoga. This magical union works to align and balance the body’s nine energy systems that form the foundation of our health. Classic yoga postures are interwoven with ancient traditional healing modalities including working with the meridian system, tapping, self-massage, holds to calm and regulate the body’s stress responses, and much more. These techniques are your gateway to communicating with the body in its own language, activating its natural healing intelligence. By focusing on your body as pure energy, you are empowered to transform and flow through life radiant and vibrant.

In this workshop, we will dive into 5 Element Theory. We will talk about the traits of each of the 5 elements, learn about how the elements affect your everyday life, and find out how to determine your personal elemental make-up. The workshop will conclude with a flow designed to balance the elements.
Come discover your elements!

Joy in Motion : Yoga Nia (neuromuscular intermittent action)
Saturday September 13, 2025 1:30pm - 2:30pm EDT
Ascension
Nia (Neuro-muscular Integrative Action) is a holistic movement practice that works with elements from martial arts, dance, and relaxation techniques and brings together body, mind, and soul. In class, you are encouraged to listen to your inner voice, to be guided by the ‘pleasure principle’, and so to perform the moves in such a way that they are healing and do your body good

Nia is fun and at the same time, develops physical fitness: strength, stamina, and a feeling of lightness. The switching between fixed choreography and free dance will stimulate your creativity and potential vitality, health, and zest for life are long-lasting side effects. The dance steps will increase your coordination, natural intelligence, and mental fitness.

Nia strengthens your connection to your own body; you will become aware of your own beauty and strength. Nia is a dance of body, mind and soul – a dance experience that transforms your life. An hour of Nia will burn calories without you even realizing that you’re in the middle of a demanding workout Nia is suitable for everyone: whether you’re fit or unfit, old or young – everyone is welcome.

Nia will give you energy but also increase your capacity to stay calm and relaxed when facing the stresses of everyday life
To make this opportunity even more unique, we utilize silent, disco headphones, which allow you to have a really personal in-body experience. We will all follow the same guided playlist that has been curated to inspire play movement and deep somatic healing.

Join Kate for Flow and Let Go! We all sometimes feel stuck and weighed down by things in our lives. We hold onto that energy even when long after we need to. This class is designed to get rid of our unwanted energies. Class starts with flow-style movement, warming up the body, and then takes us through some deeper, longer holds, allowing the body then to release what we no longer need. Rooted in the style of vinyasa yoga, linking breath and movement, this class is suitable for all levels. Students can expect the first half of class to be more movement and then the second half of class to be slower.
Kate teaches with a focus on tuning into your own body, both physical and emotional, learning to listen to what you truly need. Her laid-back and authentic approach to teaching creates an inspiring, uplifting, and fun environment.

At the heart of freeform movement lies the power to release inhibitions, let go of stress, and connect deeply with yourself and others. Join the festival community for a cathartic experience that embraces all emotions – from pure joy to quiet contemplation. It is in this space that we tap into our inner strength, resilience, and creativity, fostering a sense of belonging and unity within ourselves and community. Your facilitator, Lauren, will lead you through an opening meditation to center and connect to the breath, body, and spirit. This practice morphs into the beginning of movement and stretching and eventually releases into freedom to move as you do and experience yourself.

Ghost Pipe is the spirit-channeled experience of holistic psychotherapist and graduate professor of psychology and counseling ConnorWills. Ghost Pipe is meant to be more of a sound healing than a DJ set. Folks in attendance can expect to hear sampled vocal wisdom from Indigenous leaders around the world, experts in trauma healing, and other reminders about self-love woven in over each track. Ghost Pipe sets tend to lean toward organic tribal beats from West Africa and South America with dubby drops peppered in, but are always 100% unplanned and improvised moment by moment based on the energy of those in attendance. Come experience music as a modality for healing!

Ecstatic Dance is an inclusive, drug and alcohol-free space where authenticity is cherished. Within this realm, we allow for the music to be the gateway to authentic expression and as an invitation to explore your body’s innate wisdom.
