The choreography and stylization of this immersion will be broken down and drilled in sections throughout the intensive to ensure the success of each student. The choreography can be yours to perform, and you’re invited to film the piece from home so that LAKITA can proudly feature you on her platforms.

This immersion includes 9 hours of tuition with Lakita featuring gentle and nourishing body conditioning from the perspective of a dancer, and there will be a wide array of Fusion Bellydance and Contemporary Dance techniques for ALL levels and bodies. LAKITA’s goal is to assist you in finding new pathways in your body with ease and breath and to lead you into a meditative dance experience bursting with strength and hypnotic flow.

In addition, Atira will share 6 hours of luscious somatic movement and meditation through Sacred Feminine Yoga. This womanly style of yoga is a powerful energy cultivation practice for a female’s physical, emotional, and energetic body, a sensuous, guided journey to connect you to your true feminine power. It’s a feminine spiritual practice that embraces and enhances a woman’s sensual intelligence and nurtures the pleasure principle for healing, self-love, bliss, and embodiment.

The emphasis of this practice is to move from the “inside-out” and from your own somatic wisdom. Sacred Feminine Yoga can support you in cultivating deep rest, self-acceptance, sensuous embodiment, improve and balance hormones and the nervous system, and much, much more. As a spiritual practice, it focuses on the ancient approach of Tantra & Tao to restore and revitalize the female reproductive system and the feminine heart.

 The Syllabus

LAKITA and Atira bring their unique flavor of the feminine sacred arts to this online immersion, which will leave you inspired, radiant, and connected to your feminine essence.

Here is some detailed information about the style of Bellydance and Sacred Feminine Yoga which we bring to you in this unique virtual format, which can be immersed in the comfort of your own space, with your girlfriends or in your own home retreat.

Fusion Bellydance
    • Fusion/Contemporary Bellydance is an experimental, modern interpretation of the ancient art form that came through via a collective of women in the Bay Area, San Francisco, that has now spread globally and is maintaining its ever-evolving culture. The dance genre is rooted in Bellydance technique but fuses other styles of dance and influences. LAKITA is well-known for blending both modern and traditional stylisations of Bellydance whilst keeping connected to her roots as a contemporary dancer. She fuses this art form with contemporary music, movement, and fashion, bringing an unmistakable sensual, edgy, empowering experience to her classes, choreographies and performance. This retreat will include Bellydance Drills, Bellydance Choreography & Bellydance Performance.

Sacred Feminine Yoga
    • Sacred Feminine Yoga draws on both Tantric and Taoist practices, somatic psychology, women’s mysteries and sacred circle work to create a fusion which will awaken your feminine essence, and deepen your ability to drop into the sensual intelligence of your body.
    • This sacred practice is specifically designed for a woman’s body and is suitable for any age, stage of life, or level of yoga experience. It encourages a woman to be fully present with her feelings, allows the space for emotions to be expressed, releases stagnant energy in the body, and unlocks higher levels of intuition and instinctual wisdom. This allows a deepening into the sensual pleasure of a woman’s body.
Meditation 
    • Meditations shared will consist of a special blend of pranayama (breath practices) specifically for the womanly body and cycles, as well as feminine meditations from the Taoist and Tantric traditions.
Bali Bellydance retreat
“Lakita & Atira are so professional and relaxed in their approach, creating a super safe space which encourages full self-expression and artistic creative freedom.
The softening and the deepening into all the parts of myself that I experienced were exquisite. The dance classes were so much fun and Lakita is such a powerful dancer reflecting so many feminine expressions that became available for us to embody. Atira’s yoga, meditation, and sacred feminine yoga sessions were evocative and facilitated a deep dive into the emotion held in the physical body, allowing for release and letting go.”

Rachel Antarasi, Psychosomatic Therapist, Teacher & Coach, Melbourne, Australia.

“Feminine yoga with Atira is the most profound thing I have ever done, for awakening my sensuality, helping me with my body image, and healing from the trauma of birth.
It helped me to process the trauma of childbirth, because it’s one thing to do it intellectually but to process it physically was what was so profound and really helped me to acknowledge everything that happened and move on.
Atira has helped me to move through experiences of pain to a new experience of pleasure. My body suddenly became a vessel of love, pleasure and fun.”

– Bec Heelan, Physical Trainer and Mother. Australia
