Dancing Your Bliss

Welcome to a new and transformative world.  Dance Your Bliss™ has been called "a top-notch retreat for mind-body-and soul.  An experience that transcends time.  Be ready.  Your life will change."  (Women First magazine). With 18 years of training, study, teaching and a wide host of experience, Dance Your Bliss has been created as an innovative and powerful healing system complex which combines creative movement and body-centered therapies to tap into your unique rhythm, celebrate your inner strengths and most of all, have the time of your life.

When we get out of our heads an into our feet, we access the wisdom in the body and discover more creative expression, freedom and joy.

There are no steps to follow and no way to be wrong. Whether you just want a workout, are looking for a breakthrough or seeking a natural high, Dance Your Bliss™ is not to be missed.

Dance Your Bliss™ is much more than dance.  Each workshop is tailor-made with your needs in mind. You will heal and transform old mythologies using powerful body-oriented expressive therapy techniques. Expect to become embodied and empowered, celebrating the body and cycling through the arts, namely creative writing, drawing, and of course; movement.

Using a Body Map, we re-create our realities through the power of the body.  We learn how to resource the inner wisdom of the body, and to easily learn how to bring more balance and pleasure in our lives.

Testimonials:

 "Rachel is a fantastic teacher. She is exuberant vivacious and juicy and she made it VERY safe for all of us to let go on many many levels. I enjoyed her candidness, honesty and huge generous heart. I would take another workshop with her in a heartbeat and recommend the workshop to all our therapist friends."


"..the workshop exceeded my expectations. Rachel is a generous and talented teacher."


"Rachel Fleischman is a treasure. I had not taken a class with her before and will definitely take any class that she offers at Omega. I hope you will invite her back - she gives so much more than the description of the class would indicate. She creates a safe environment for her students to learn and grow and most definitely have fun. I didn't know how much I need movement in my life. I feel inspired for make adventurous changes now."


"Equal to my wonderful experience of "Writing the Unthinkable" was the deeply moving and transforming experience of each day's session from 12:15 - 1:00 pm "Dancing Your Bliss" as led by Rachel - truly an important, energizing, creative and cathartic experience - I went EVERY day. A close second was the fantastically nutritious, healthy, tasty meals served each day, at all meal times. I loved that!"    ~Julie

A space to move, exactly the way you want to. Rachel stands for movement, healing, bliss, authenticity, body, love and acceptance.

Her workshops are transformational and empowering and remind you of the strength and beauty that is inside each of us. I just wish there were more of them.

I wasn't sure I was a Dance Your Bliss kind of person, but tried it today and loved it.  I haven't danced like that in quite a while, the music was great, Rachel was great, the company was great, and I felt wonderful afterwards.

Dancing Your Bliss is a fabulously fun to get a great workout and to set your spirit free!   It's a wonderful way to check your self-consciousness at the door and to get in touch with the joy and bliss that is your birthright! Give it a whirl, you won't be sorry!

Have you ever wished you could dance with your whole heart, soul and body but knew you couldn't because you didn't know the steps?  Well, try Dancing Your Bliss.  You'll have a priceless opportunity to express your feelings and all of those latent desires to move with abandon to absolutely stunning selections of music.
 
Rachel, provides a safe, supportive atmosphere in which you can explore the various ways your body can move in response to music and rythmn.  This is all about free expression so you don't have to know any steps or "how to do it".  She dances with you and offers ideas which you can follow if you like but you are encouraged to do what feels comfortable for yourself.  

You may come to class feeling a bit shy or self-conscious but you soon relax in the understanding that this is all about expressing yourself.  You are exhorted to send your inner critics out to play in the traffic and just get down to responding to what the music says to you and just enjoying the experience.  (How many chances do you get to do that in your everyday life?)

By the end of the class you feel inspired, energized, in touch with the creative spirit within, you've been kindly looked after by Rachel (imagine the delight of an unexpected foot massage as you relax on the floor) and you've had a totally good workout.  It's a good way to meet new people, too. I always leave wishing I could do this every week rather than once a month.
