Festival Kick-Off | Downriver — Soulful Flow and the Blues
LIMITED
Thursday June 11, 2026 1:00pm - 2:30pm PDT
The Oxford Hotel — Minnesota Ballroom
Limited Capacity seats available

This slow, sublime practice is shaped by the rhythm and lineage of blues music that grew along rivers, carrying stories and sound downriver through time. We’ll flow at an unhurried pace, letting movement unfold gradually. The practice emphasizes yielding to rhythm, trusting transitions, and settling into what is already here rather than striving for change. This soulful, embodied experience invites you to move with the current, feel the music in your body, and rest in the rhythm that guides the practice.
