Poetry-in- Motion ™ (created by Merissa Manley) “Honoring Creation: I raise my voice, singing praises in honor of the glory of creation. How magnificent to take a breath and feel the life force filling up my lungs and coursing love through my veins. How amazing to see this intricate web with vision far greater than my eyes. Truly blessed we are. So I live every moment…every breath in service to life…to love. I sing, and pray, and dance; all in honor of the glory of creation.”-Julia Butterfly Hill An hour flow class with poetry interwoven throughout the duration.
