What is QOYA?

QOYA is based on the idea that through movement, we remember. We remember, as women, our essence is wise, wild and free.

WISE ~ Calls on the wisdom traditions and practices of yoga, meditation, stillness, rest and contemplative practices that all guide us into our inner knowing.

WILD ~ Invokes the creative authentic expression of dance, to move how we feel, not based on what it looks like, but instead reflects the honesty in how we feel in any moment.

FREE ~ The choice of freedom: to feel pleasure in our bodies, to find the places that feel good to move and our ability to to follow and trust those places. Offering our body the option to move intuitively, sensual and slow.

These ancient essences lead us to feel a connection, a homecoming with the sacred pulse of life that is within us always. When we feel this pulse we honor it and express it with greater clarity + joy, we find and feel our center, our true north. QOYA is designed to help us feel how the body and our movements are portals to remembering, that guide us from going through the motions to savoring life as sacred.

There is NO WAY to do QOYA “wrong” and you know you are doing it “right” if your movement feels honest and that you are staying on the path of being connected to yourself. In QOYA we often say that it is not about how it looks and it is ALL ABOUT HOW IT FEELS. We trust the feelings and sensations in our bodies as we use them to guide our dance.

Once you reserve your class or membership, a Zoom link for the class will be emailed to you before class. Qoya has been a lifeline these last few years, I have come to see, feel and know that this practice is reliably healing and helpful in navigating life challenges.

Sincerely,
Tawny

Through movement we remember
