Love Shine Play Festival 2026

Greet the day with embodied presence and intention. This morning session blends gentle movement, intuitive breathwork, and guided meditation to set the tone for clarity, grounded energy, and a calmer inner pace. Breath weaves through the practice, helping you stabilize your focus and open a clean channel for intuition. You’ll land in a guided meditation that anchors you in balance and gentle expansion. Walk into the day steady, refreshed, and trusting the quiet confidence already inside you.

Most people try to think their way into their next chapter. This workshop starts in the body instead. Participants use guided movement and dance to physically embody the version of themselves they're working toward, not as visualization but as direct somatic rehearsal. The coaching framework grounds the experience: identifying what they actually want, locating where resistance lives in the body, and using movement to shift it. Ends as a full dance party where the room collectively holds its intentions in motion.

Activate your second chakra and free your body through the power of rhythm, bass, and movement. This dancehall reggae, salsa, and Afrobeats-infused session blends somatic healing, hip-opening sequences, and culture-inspired movement that syncs with the beat of your soul. You’ll move intuitively, unlock emotional blockages, and reconnect with the primal pulse of your being through music, breath, and embodied freedom. Sound, movement, and deep release merge into something liberating, heightening self-expression, stimulating creativity, and deepening your connection to the wisdom held within your hips. “Wine yuh body” and leave feeling lighter, more open, and joyfully alive.

Shake, move, and meditate like never before. Allow your full self to be expressed through this four-part movement and meditation process infused with powerful beats. Dive deep into the multi-dimensional being, open up the energy channels, and release any blockages that keep you feeling stuck. Indulge in this conscious movement and meditation practice and embody bliss!

Bellydance is one of the oldest forms of somatic intelligence. This workshop strips it of performance and uses it as a precision mindfulness tool, specifically for presence and accessing non-linear thinking. The isolation work requires the kind of focused attention that interrupts rumination. Participants leave with a short personal movement sequence they can use as a reset practice. Coaching integration: how the body's wisdom shows up when the analytical mind is occupied with movement.

You’re not broken. You’re not depleted. You’re angry. You’ve been making yourself smaller, quieter, more palatable, and the cost has been your fire. This immersion is for the woman who is done negotiating with her own life. We’ll begin with breathwork designed to regulate and activate, calming the nervous system first, then building energy through rhythmic breath patterns that wake up what has gone dormant. From there, Faith guides you through a fierce and honest reflective practice: where have you been leaking power? What boundary have you been afraid to set? What desire have you been calling “selfish” instead of calling it yours? The middle of this session moves into embodied expression, somatic movement, sound, rhythm, letting the body say what the mind has been censoring. We close with intention, boundary-setting, and a grounding meditation that doesn’t soften you back down. You’ll leave with fire you can actually use.

Unlock your body and find true freedom of movement in this dynamic "Mobility Flow" class. Designed for festival-goers, hikers, and active movers, this session blends the breath-centered, creative movement of vinyasa with innovative, science-backed mobility drills to strengthen and release your joints.
We will move beyond simple flexibility to focus on functional range of motion—targeting notorious "stuck" areas like the hips, shoulders, and ankles—allowing you to move with more ease on and off the mat. Starting with gentle activation to build heat, we will transition into a fluid sequence that increases strength and body awareness, finishing with deep, restorative stretches to help you recover and reset for your next mountain adventure.

Breathe in the sky, soar with your wings over dancing palm trees,  dive into waves that flow in and out of your inner shores. Feel the pulse of your heart’s vibration like a sacred drum awakening your body’s rhythm; this is Earth Root Reggae Flow. Allow your bare feet to root deep into the Mother Earth and rise like a mountain of energy, touching the very stars. Sway like the rhythmic flow of waves rising and splashing on the shores of your heart. Bathe in the rays of the sun that permeate with the light of consciousness glowing from within to all the stars that adorn your dreams. Flow into an earthly celebration of dance with body, breath, and beat like an inner fire of transformation and joy. Then soften into stillness like a sunset over warm sand as you become your breath, your roots, your heart, flowing like a vast, beautiful ocean, becoming the still, quiet moon.

Leave feeling strong, clear, and fully in your body.

Fire Power Flow is about building heat with intention and letting that energy move through you.

You’ll move through a dynamic sequence that blends alignment, strength, and fluid transitions. It’s not just about getting through poses. It’s about understanding them, feeling where you’re working, and then letting that structure turn into flow.

We’ll focus on technique. How you place your hands. How you stack your joints. Where your energy leaks and how to bring it back online. Then we layer in rhythm and breath so the practice starts to carry you instead of the other way around.

Music is upbeat and driving. Expect to sweat. Expect to drop in. There’s a moment where it clicks, and everything starts to feel connected.

You’ll leave grounded, energized, and a little more tapped into your own power.

Participants learn exactly how the vagus nerve regulates their stress response and then use specific movement sequences, breath patterns, and rhythmic dance to directly activate it. The coaching layer addresses what becomes possible in decision-making, creativity, and relationships when the nervous system is no longer running threat responses. Participants leave with a concrete 10-minute daily movement protocol.
