Full Moon Dance and Lantern Making Workshop

“Make, Create, Illuminate”

October 04, 1- 4pm, Barwon Downs Hall

Workshop Description

This session explores the Full Moon following Spring Equinox – the midpoint between Spring and Summer. We honour the ancient art of lantern making. Create luminous moon spheres to take home, let them guide your movement as you dance and weave them into your creative flow. Open to women aged 16+ and those identifying. No dance experience necessary just a willingness to connect and explore in a safe space.

What awaits you…

Lantern Making– a hands-on, transformative, meditative process. Also FUN! As we shape and mould our lanterns, we’ll weave our wishes, intentions, and silvery threads into Creation – a collective offering to the world.

Creative Dance – Creative Dance aims to lead each dancer into the rich and varied artistic, emotional, physical and spiritual levels of human experience – music from all ages and cultures is used. Explore movement with props, group dances, solo and partner pieces. Experiance ceremony, outdoor circle dances, and lunar rhythms. Awaken creative energy with earth-based practices.

What you Recieve

Gentle guidance and tuition from experienced performance artists and facilitators. A safe space to explore your creativity.

What to Bring

Water bottle, journal and pens. Artsmock for lantern making. Something yummy to share or drink for AfterMoon Tea. 

What to Wear

Whatever you are comfortable and can move freely in.  We have been exploring a colour for each phase – wear white garments if you have them! The workshop takes place inside and outside a hall with heating and cooling systems but be prepared for all seasons.

“A beautiful women’s circle and creative dance practice, carefully held with attention to detail. Safe, supportive, and deeply nourishing. The experience allowed me to connect with myself and others in a meaningful way, and I felt both free and grounded throughout. It was a gift to be part of such a well-facilitated space where each moment was crafted with care.”

Lyndel

…. It was such a sacred feminine exploration, I felt very held by the other women… we held each other and were given permission to be free… it was very freeing… yet safe. Afterwards I felt that I had reconnected with my heart, my creativity and the joy of child-me.

 

Tiffany

“My lunar connection has already deepened and I had a felt-sense experience of how the feminine aspect of me is connected to this heavenly body during the workshop. Hard to put into words….and more than just the cyclical nature of the Feminine….I’m feeling so  grateful to Elle and the Women.”

Amanda

“I recently participated in WildHoney’s New Moon Dance Workshop: Creative Exploration for Women, and it was a wonderful experience. The flowing movement, space for focusing on intentions, planting, softness, and dance connected us deeply to the earth, moon, and variations of feminine energy. I found it playful, surprising, and filled with joy. The workshop space was beautifully curated, creating an inviting and sacred atmosphere. Elle and Amanda held the space with such grace, making everyone feel welcome and connected. I left feeling rejuvenated, quietly proud of the surprising part of me I hadn’t expressed in a long time, and peaceful. I can truly recommend this workshop to anyone seeking a space to explore movement, connection, and the beauty of feminine energy”.

I loved the workshop, I loved that there was the invitation to participate and the way that you invited everyone meant everyone was ready to drop in as well as the opening and the participation. I really appreciated being able to share in a smaller circle and get into the dance, I really loved that.When we created the dances, that really filled my cup and made me excited and brought a sense of relief too, that we CAN do these things, watching the other women dance was so moving and emotional and beautiful, and then knowing we created a dance after that other people also watched that was really one of the highlights and I really loved those led hooded gowns and the play, the play is just so comforting to play and be present.
