Madi Sato’s Song Carriers Women’s Circle is a practice which activates the voice, as well as body mind and spirit, in relationship to nature within & all around. Madi facilitates a dedicated space to intoning songs of the ancestors as well as birthing and activating new songs of the Earth while weaving a communal space of balance and creativity. She guides in an oral traditional way and includes some movement.

Madi facilitates the circle in alignment with the energy of the Moon’s cycles, opening all colors and possibilities of women’s voices through earth based vocal practices and modalities. This spirited circle empowers women to liberate and channel their natural, intuitive, healing voice for the benefit of all life. Absolutely no singing experience is required. (Cost $100 for the four hour workshop. Reduced fees are available; please contact Liz to arrange them at geoliz@comcast.net)

Please bring your lunch, beverage, a sunhat and a blanket for grass sitting — we will have chairs also.
