About the Event
All funds raised will go toward hiring a birth doula for a member of the Kingston community who lost her husband unexpectedly earlier this month.
In a world that seems intent on pushing us apart and focusing on our differences, Weaving Community together feels like an important and radical act of defiance as well as a celebration of the human spirit. In this Qoya Inspired Movement practice, sound bath and acupuncture journey, we'll explore what it feels like in our bodies when we choose to Weave Community - to intentionally connect with others, to be a part of a shared sense of oneness, to weave our lives in community with other like-hearted people. Through movement, sound, and acupuncture, we'll tap into the wisdom of our own bodies as we explore the theme, Weaving Community.

About Us
We're three healing practitioners based in upstate New York who are thrilled to be weaving a new community through this event by bringing our people together and meeting new ones.
Qoya Inspired Movement
Élan Vital
From the time she could walk, Elan has danced. This passion for movement brought her to her first Qoya Inspired Movement class in 2011. Élan became a Qoya teacher in 2016 and has offered live classes across the US, on retreat in France and Zimbabwe, as well as on-line through the pandemic.
In addition to offering Qoya, Élan is a life coach for the childbearing year, a birth doula, a maternity care consumer advocate & policy expert, and a thought leader in the birth movement.
Elan experiences Qoya as a pathway back to our truest selves, a place where we are inherently Wise, Wild and Free. On the dance floor, as in the birth room, we are powerful creators. It is Elan's greatest desire to help women connect with that power.
Sound Bath Artist
Dana Marie
Dana is a yoga teacher, sound healer, and Qoya inspired movement facilitator. Her yoga journey began in 2003 while attending Cal Poly and pursuing a degree in horticulture. She has been leading group yoga classes ever since and added Qoya Inspired Movement and sound bath meditations to her offerings in 2016.
Dana believes that the universe was created from sound and that we are all vibrating at our own frequencies. The combining of frequencies to make harmonious creations of music and healing sound are gifts from Spirit that help support humanity's remembering of who we truly are.
"One of my biggest passions in life is to facilitate the magical connection of all things through sound vibration." -- Dana Marie
Dana is available for private individual and group sound baths, yoga and Qoya gatherings.
Acupuncture
Alexis Arvidson
Alexis has been practicing acupuncture and herbal medicine for 15 years in NYC and the Hudson Valley. Her practice centers families, mothers and children as the foundation for whole community health. It is a primary focus of Alexis’s work to support building a rich tapestry of healthful relationships throughout your life, within and beyond the treatment room.
