Trust & Surrender
This training is for those who would like to awaken to themselves on a deeper level whilst learning to facilitate others, all from a safely held and embodied space.
The purpose of this potent alchemical experience is to connect you with a deeper sense of meaning on your human journey, to develop your Inner Dance facilitation and to dynamically align you with your soul's purpose.
Inner Dance is an internal movement meditation facilitated by sound, touch and intuitive words. It could also be called 'Trust and Surrender'.
This certified training is an inner adventure composed of natural movements, awareness, emotional release & insights.
The Inner Dance Process
We begin by comfortably lying down with our eyes closed. The facilitator and the frequencies of the music guides the brain through various brainwave states, including those associated with lucid dreaming and deep theta healing. When energy flows transformation can happen. Spontaneous movements emerge from within as we enter morphic resonance. Activation of kundalini, natural DMT release, receiving oneself - laughing, crying, dancing, trancing.
Everyone's expression of movement will be different as this is an authentic dialogue with our highest self where we, from our authentic sovereignty can choose who we become from this moment now. Entering a quantum space of expanded consciousness we can be the witness to our personal and sometimes collective healing processes. This leads participants into an expanded state of Be-ing.

This weekend I joined a group of facilitators to deepen and explore our practice. It was truly magical to experience, facilitate and witness such deep release through the Inner Dance process. It was humbling to receive a healing for long stored dis-ease in the body. Many years of misdiagnosed coeliac disease leading to sickness and nausea and gut pain. These sensations were experienced in the session and released leaving me lighter and freer than before. I have been free of symptoms for longer than I was ill but the trauma stays in the body and we need to find a way to release it safely. So grateful to have been gifted the experience and more so for the lightness and joy I feel following that release. I cannot promise that Inner Dance will bring you similar experiences but I have to trust the process and the healing comes in it’s own time.
I quite often dance freely at home to classical pieces I am learning, or when I am drumming, or to chakra dance cds and dvds. I really loved what you offered and it felt just right for me to develop dancing in this way. It was gentle, my body felt progressively freer, the ideas behind it felt beautiful and it was very respectful of where each of us was. Although the moves were new to me it was well presented so that i felt able to follow. I would love to experience some more if and when Katie returns to UK and if Galit decides to train in … Inner dance classes, if I am able to get to the venue. I wish you both all the best in developing these dance activities- very freeing and uplifting!
