Pour yourself into community and receive the illumination of others
EMBODIED WEAVING describes our actions as expressions of consciously co-creating with the universe we live in, from a recognition of connectivity with this earthly world, including plant-life, animal-life, soil-life, spirit-life. The creative spark is supported through our connections, forged in vessels of love and commitment. The more we realize our collective potential the more we bring our collective dreams to life, the more we serve, and the more we enjoy this beautiful world. This world deserves our respect, our attention, and our playful spirits in harmony with life-force. So here is to creating more Love in the world! The world needs you! May you Weave with your Whole Embodied Self!
YOGA Regular Yoga practice amplifies the natural flow of creative energy that each of us possess. We tap into our potential as strong and gentle human beings on this Earth, at this time. Yoga attends inwardly to the nuances of breath, of thought, of feeling and other happenings within our bodies. Outwardly yoga helps us to manifest how we envision the world we want to live in. Embodied Weaving approaches yoga as a loom onto which we weave our daily lives. Embodied Weaving offers Yoga Retreats, Privates & Semi-privates, Series Classes, Yoga Trainings, Immersive Experiences, Craft-Collaborations, & Continuing Education for yoga teachers & massage therapists. |

MASSAGE Massage enhances our lives by helping us to land gently back into our bodies, as blocked energy is freed up. The day looks brighter when we look forward to a massage. Each massage holds its own unique healing. At Embodied Weaving we address our client’s most pressing needs and then work to integrate the rest of the body. Thai Massage in particular embodies the weaving of body and spirit. When the natural life-force is freed, we naturally feel more comfortable and happy in our own skin. Thai Massage combines rhythmic acupressure with assisted yoga stretches, for a powerfully recharging and deeply relaxing experience. |
TEXTILES
Working with natural dyes reignites our relationship with nature. The deep rich colors of the dye baths have an inner glow that cheers the heart. Wild scents waft through the air, as our hands fold, clamp, tie, rinse, ring, hang, unfold, and work the fabric. Natural dyeing yields gorgeous colors from our Earth ~ transforming ordinary objects into vibrant reminders of the richness of life.
Embodied Weaving offers natural dye workshops, and makes one-of-a-kind meditation mats, wall hangings, vintage patterns, and inventive individual projects. Reach out if you are interested in participating in a workshop or would like to hire Embodied Weaving for consultation or individualized project. Embodied Weaving co-created Indigo Revival with Rachael Kinsey of Crafted Outpost. Indigo Revival came about as an experiment to bring the natural dyes into market spaces, educational programs, and craft camp. It was for our mutual love of color, design, and plant life. Indigo Revival is all about reconnecting to our natural world, full of hidden color, teased out through alchemical processes. While we work with many natural dye plants, indigo is special for its deep rich blue, versatile in the shades it produces. Indigo acts as a kind of shield for the fiber, actually making a textile live longer. We take old clothes and make them new again, thus the “Revival” piece to our brand. We also create fresh garments, working together to achieve beautiful simplicity, which allows the dye to speak for itself. Embodied Weaving & Indigo Revival will happily help you achieve your dyeing goals: whether it’s taking workshops with us or having us dye that special heirloom.

DANCE
The dance of life is marked by birth, death, love, friendship, success and failure, gain and loss. We sometimes find ourselves tossed around by the struggles of life. When we soften into our bodies and become aware of the movement pulsing within us, we remember our joy, our light, our purpose. Movement and growth weave our bodies into being. The music we hear and feel within our own bodies expresses itself as dance. The act of dancing has always celebrated life. When we dance with others there is a harmony of relationship that makes life sweeter.
