Burn a fire in your center to illuminate your heart
Sunday September 14, 2025 8:30am - 9:30am EDT
In this class, Kellie will facilitate breath awareness and control to calm anxiety, remember who they are, and move the energy into a higher self. The physical practice is slow and steady, with some holding of poses to develop a strong mind.  Kellie is extremely keen on cueing detailed alignment to hold the pose with some ease. You will be reminded to tune in to your pain points and rest to find a balance between effort and ease! When the alignment of the pose is precise, holding can be uplifting. We will tap into the Solar plexus to burn a radiant fire and bring it to the heart. We gather the energy from the heart, bring it to the throat, and make some sounds. Humming, buzzing, ommmimg. With that vibration, we go into stillness and seek what it is their practice brought up and pick a word to take with them off the mat.

Resonance: A Voyage of Sensuous Aliveness
Sunday September 14, 2025 1:30pm - 2:30pm EDT
We are nature: earth, fluid, sound, pulse, breath. And through Resonance, we return to that truth. This isn’t yoga. It’s not ecstatic dance. It’s a reclamation—a spiraling descent into the body, where untamed presence meets primal movement and fluid intelligence. This is unscripted discovery, where we shed performance and expectation, and instead, soften into the infinite hum of the cosmos woven into our flesh.

Through primal dance, sound, breath, and somatic tending, you’ll be guided into a sensuous conversation with your body and the living web it’s connected to. We’ll explore the edges of your skin, the weight of your cells, the fluid motility of your connective tissue, and the endless creative potential unlocked by radical presence.

This practice is for untangling knots, lubricating stagnant tissue, and re-enlivening your sensuous experience of the world. It’s for unraveling trauma patterns stored in the body and expanding your capacity to be here now—deeply.
You might touch the delight of corporeal reality without shame, feel the intoxicating freedom of mobility and motility, and hear your own breath as a song of reclamation.

What to Expect:

Techniques:
Curl, slither, spiral, shake. Skin-edge sensing. Embryological nurturance. Sound healing. Breath journeys. Energy medicine.

Premise:
Soften the inhibitors so your body’s innate intelligence can guide the way. Reclaim the felt-sense of being alive.

What It’s For:
• Releasing trauma stored in the body.
• Expanding creative capacity through somatic self-location.
• Lubricating tight, dry, immobilized tissue into supple vitality.
• Reconnecting with the web of life to amplify presence and resonance.

Who It’s For:
• Practitioners seeking to deepen their work and fill in the gaps.
• Creatives yearning to find space for inspiration.
• Bodies that feel trapped in rigidity or disconnected from sensation.
• Anyone who desires a practice that isn’t confined by rigid beliefs or rules.

This is a return to your aliveness, a portal into the primal intelligence of your body. It’s not about escaping your reality—it’s about expanding it. Resonance is for those ready to feel, move, and live in ways that ripple into everything they touch.
Come dance with your breath, spiral into your song, and root into the rhythm of the world.

One participant will win a 1-hour session, and all attendees will receive $100 credit toward Wild Essence

Rise into Your Role in the Great Awakening
Sunday September 14, 2025 3:00pm - 4:00pm EDT
Based on my transformational spiritual coaching to awaken the priestesses of the modern world, this workshop is an experiential mix of ritual (meditation, movement, breathwork), lecture, journaling, transmission, circle-based discussion, Q&A, and coaching for women who feel curious or called to step into their soul purpose.

We will explore what is The Great Awakening, why each one of us is needed in this movement and evolution of consciousness, how spirituality will heal our world, and why it's necessary to first create this new culture within ourselves and our lives so that we may do our work that ripples out to the world. We will also discuss what it means to embody our souls fully, let our ego serve our souls, and the path of empowered surrender as the greatest way to co-create our paths with Source.

Meditation will allow for communion and guidance for clarity around participants' purpose, soul embodiment, and what's blocking them. We will also workshop various aspects of "starting where you are," including the power of your personal journey in the purpose you serve. Participants will have the opportunity to be coached in the group to heal and integrate the blocks currently holding them back. The workshop will conclude with a tantric embodied breathwork activation ritual to align participants' nervous systems to their next-level embodiment of their soul purpose.

As the festival weekend comes to an end, Mountain Flower and Allie invite you to join us to close out the weekend in ceremony.  We will begin with an activation ceremony led by Allie that will connect us all to the collective energy we curated throughout the festival weekend and together we will expand that energy into 2026.  We will reflect on the journey we had together as well as individually throughout the weekend before we step into a meditation together.  We will then ground ourselves to come back to the present and be blessed by a reintegration prayer led by Mountain Flower.  We hope you will join us in closing out this weekend together.
