When the Wild Dreams Me
When the Wild Dreams Me is a series of artwork, poetry, music, and musings born from dreaming with the land. Here lie stories hidden beyond our constructs of identity. Tales of mystery, magic, and myth that reveal themselves to the beholder through symbols, dreams, and wild encounters. Our senses pull us into that great ocean of memory that is belonging, the web of creation that extends deep into the soil and out into the cosmos.
At this art show you can expect to find visual art, poetry and prose, interactive creating, and music culminating in a collaborative performance. When the Wild Dreams Me is not about the product, but rather the process of uncovering the living mythos of the wilderness that lives within each of us. It is from this place I invite any who feel the call to dream into this dream with me to see what comes forth.
The Acorn's Dream ~ Saturday evening performance
The Acorn's Dream is a collaborative musical-style short story written and directed by Savannah Clancy and brought to life by local community members. It is a creatively shortened version of a longer story that will be shared in full in the future, called Hanora from Ireland and the Acorn Song.
The Acorn's Dream comes through a dream in the shape of a song that gifts an acorn to plant. Love constitutes its presence, and its potential is an ever-binding freedom. To dream this acorn's dream is to dream a new world into being; one of belonging, magic, wildness, and wonder for all beings alive to taste in every crack and corner of darkness.
This performance is donation-based; a payment is not required to purchase a ticket, but if you would like to add a small donation of your choosing it is appreciated!
There will be walk-in options available on the day of, but if you can, please reserve your seat now!

About Savannah ~ I am a multimedia artist and musician based in White Salmon, WA. Everything I do is deeply rooted in my wild belonging and relationship to the earth. I believe that creativity is an intrinsic part of being human and that every one of us lives as a creative act.
When asked what medium I use I say, "Anything, but my favorite is one I have never used before". Of course, there is power in intimacy with a certain art form, but what I love most about art is the element of possibility. And so when I say that I am a multimedia artist and musician, I mean that I am a curious person and art is just one way I dance with the world.
This is my first art show, and I am so excited and scared to share this part of my heart with the world. My prayer is that my art can both inspire and remind folks of their own creative fire that is always available to them with infinite potential. I currently have one album available on all platforms called, Roots in the Water, released last year. It is a good segway into the heart of my work, and I look forward to sharing more.
This is a free event and open to the public, please come to enjoy! The art will be available for purchase.
Opening night ~ Friday, April 4, 5-8pm
Open Gallery ~ Saturday, April 5, 10am- 5pm
Collaborative Performance ~ Saturday, April 5, doors open at 6:30pm and the performance begins at 7-8pm
Sweat Your Prayers®
Sweat Your Prayers® is a gathering where we bring our individual 5Rhythms® practice and move through the rhythms of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness with intention and in community. It is a dance meditation practice with music and very minimal instruction. There's no step to learn. We dance our own dance. Everybody's welcome! Please come ready to sweat, bring your curiosity, a water bottle and your friends.
"To sweat is to pray, to make an offering of your innermost self. Sweat is holy water, prayer beads, pearls of liquid that release your past. Sweat is an ancient and universal form of self healing, whether done in the gym, the sauna, or the sweat lodge. I do it on the dance floor. The more you dance, the more you sweat. The more you sweat, the more you pray. The more you pray, the closer you come to ecstasy." - Gabrielle Roth
Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms® is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the body in motion, the psyche will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms® are practiced, a commUNITY is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free.
Sara Mains is a certified 5Rhythms facilitator and has been leading 5Rhythms® classes and workshops in the Columbia River Gorge for 10 years.

Deep Listening ~ A 5Rhythms® Committed Series with Jannie Schaffer
The messier life gets, the stronger the invitation to listen deeply.
Series Dates: April 14, 21, 28, & May 5, 13* from 5-7P *May 13 is a Tuesday not a Monday.
Cost: $100 | REGISTER HERE or email Jannie at jannie.schaffer@gmail.com to register. 20 spots available.
In this committed*, 5-part 5Rhythms® series, we will learn practical, body-based tools to navigate the layers of ourselves necessary to access the quiet voice of guidance that’s always there, nudging us back to the sweet deep dance at the center point of who we are and the path we’re on.
In Flowing, we will ground into our base current energy, connecting to the depths of ourselves, finding stability, and reclaiming our strong, fluid nature.
In Staccato, we will learn to be focused, clear, and expressive so we can move through the world with purposeful action and clear direction.
In Chaos, we will learn to release control, be ok with the unknown, and surrender to where we are in life. In this state of being, we refine our intuition, break through the patterns that keep us stuck, and allow ourselves to be guided from within.
In Lyrical, we will learn to embody lightness and grace as we connect with our most soulful selves and remember that, no matter the storms we may weather, life can be quite simple when we find our place and learn to listen deeply.
In Stillness, we will tune into the subtle guidance always available within us, listening not just with our ears, but with every cell of our being, distilling answers that are only found in the silence of our own inner landscape.
If you are looking for an intentional way to reflect and find clarity in your life and you want to learn more about the 5Rhythms® practice, this series is for you.
*This is a committed series. No drop-ins. 20 spots available. Please reach out if you want to attend and know that you’ll need to miss one or more of the classes.

In Chaos, we will learn to release control, be ok with the unknown, and surrender to where we are in life. In this state of being, we refine our intuition, break through the patterns that keep us stuck, and allow ourselves to be guided from within.
In Lyrical, we will learn to embody lightness and grace as we connect with our most soulful selves and remember that, no matter the storms we may weather, life can be quite simple when we find our place and learn to listen deeply.
In Stillness, we will tune into the subtle guidance always available within us, listening not just with our ears, but with every cell of our being, distilling answers that are only found in the silence of our own inner landscape.
If you are looking for an intentional way to reflect and find clarity in your life and you want to learn more about the 5Rhythms® practice, this series is for you.

"To sweat is to pray, to make an offering of your innermost self. Sweat is holy water, prayer beads, pearls of liquid that release your past. Sweat is an ancient and universal form of self healing, whether done in the gym, the sauna, or the sweat lodge. I do it on the dance floor. The more you dance, the more you sweat. The more you sweat, the more you pray. The more you pray, the closer you come to ecstasy." - Gabrielle Roth

Join us in this poetic landscape as we come together to nourish ourselves and each other, creating an ensemble rooted in aliveness, returning to wonder and recharging possibility.

Designed to inspire, refresh, reset and connect. Our time will include movement, creative excavations, collective truth-telling and beauty-making.

Shapeshifting the Goddess Closing Retreat ~ Friday, June 27th, 6 pm - 9 pm and Saturday June 28th, 10 am - 5/6 pm
The Goddess has many faces and the feminine psyche has many facets — our freedom comes from our capacity to embrace all of it. Shapeshifting the Goddess is a 9-month hybrid journey of ceremony, somatic therapy, shadow work, and pleasure for women ready to live uninhibitedly and wildly from their place of truth. This is a journey of falling madly in love with the woman within and this is journey of nurturing our capacity to truly allow her to lead.
This journey includes an opening and closing weekend retreat, one mid-journey day retreat, weekly content, monthly virtual gatherings, and a platform to stay regularly connected with the other women. You can find the full details and registration here.
If you cannot make the in-person aspects but are feeling the call there is a virtual option to partake.

My Animal Body
My Animal Body
Movement is our native language and our most primal pathway to healing
What does it mean to dwell IN your sensual animal body?
To be soft enough to feel your way through and respond with ease?
To BE in your skin?
To move from your bones instead of your beliefs?
To own your instincts and intuition?
To sense your infinite connections with the environment around you?
These are the queries we will explore using the Waves Map, dance, commUNITY & our sensate body alongside a collection of experiments designed to reactivate your inner wisdom and rest your nervous system.
Together, we will build trust in your own ability to be present and responsive to life.
My Animal Body is a call from the wild; an invitation to play with your inborn authenticity and innate ability to navigate the unknown.
We as human animals are designed to respond to the chaos of life... yet most of us are caught in rigid patterns of deflection and defense, tamed by our devices & comforts; assuming rather than seeing what is. Consumed by what was or what might be rather than attuning to what is right now.
You’re invited to drop the domestication and befriend your feral Self...
Your Animal Body holds so much more than words could ever express.
Facilitated by Wyld Lee ~ Wyld is a sensitive and awkward animal whose native tongue is dance.
The 5Rhythms practice has given her the route to the root of creative expression and healing. Offering this freedom is her most profound joy.
She has been holding 5Rhythms spaces since 2018 in devotion to the Mystery and in gratitude to the creator of this practice, Gabrielle Roth, who once said
"It takes discipline to be a free spirit."

The elements are earth and water with qualities of love, courage, connectedness, and stability.
You will receive:
Dosha Conversation/ exploration
Recommended lifestyle shifts
Balancing transition to Spring
Yoga flow for Kapha Balance to increase calm, understanding and patience

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both Oregon and Washington, I’ve trained extensively in mental health. I also have over 800 hours in yoga therapy, including partner and children’s yoga, and am a Certified International Yoga Therapist. I deeply value community, connection, joy, and play. My approach is rooted in curiosity, openness, and the importance of reconnecting with your inner wisdom. Remember, you are the expert in your own body and mind. If you’re interested in my yoga offerings, I’m honored to share the knowledge of yoga from India, with a focus on neuroscience, mindfulness techniques, and meditation practices.
I'm Madeline Armstrong, and I opened Gorge Ayurveda in 2023 after completing my studies at California College of Ayurveda (CCA). I was lucky to learn with wonderful Ayurvedic teachers and practitioners there, and I'm excited to bring my knowledge of healing the body to the Gorge community. My approach is centered in the Ayurvedic wisdom of balancing our bodies alongside the seasons, deep nourishment of the nervous system, and focusing on the digestive system as the root cause of all disease in the body. I am honored to guide others on their journey towards optimum health and wellbeing, with personalized recommendations based on their unique mind-body constitution.

Shapeshifting the Goddess Integration Circle
The Goddess has many faces and the feminine psyche has many facets — our freedom comes from our capacity to embrace all of it. Shapeshifting the Goddess is a 9-month hybrid journey of ceremony, somatic therapy, shadow work, and pleasure for women ready to live uninhibitedly and wildly from their place of truth. This is a journey of falling madly in love with the woman within and this is journey of nurturing our capacity to truly allow her to lead.
This journey includes an opening and closing weekend retreat, one mid-journey day retreat, weekly content, monthly virtual gatherings, and a platform to stay regularly connected with the other women. You can find the full details and registration here.
If you cannot make the in-person aspects but are feeling the call there is a virtual option to partake.

Sweat Your Prayers®
Sweat Your Prayers® is a gathering where we bring our individual 5Rhythms® practice and move through the rhythms of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness with intention and in community. It is a dance meditation practice with music and very minimal instruction. There's no step to learn. We dance our own dance. Everybody's welcome! Please come ready to sweat, bring your curiosity, a water bottle and your friends.
"To sweat is to pray, to make an offering of your innermost self. Sweat is holy water, prayer beads, pearls of liquid that release your past. Sweat is an ancient and universal form of self healing, whether done in the gym, the sauna, or the sweat lodge. I do it on the dance floor. The more you dance, the more you sweat. The more you sweat, the more you pray. The more you pray, the closer you come to ecstasy." - Gabrielle Roth
Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms® is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the body in motion, the psyche will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms® are practiced, a commUNITY is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free.
Sara Mains is a certified 5Rhythms facilitator and has been leading 5Rhythms® classes and workshops in the Columbia River Gorge for 10 years.

reNew
Winter's stillness nurtures an exquisite place in life, it is quiet, spacious, and connected to the pulse of our own heart.
Renew is a time to give attention to what is emerging, to the gestation of your soulful self, to bring awareness to the wisdom of your own body's way of being through change, transition and transformation.
Change of course is inevitable and sometimes very uncomfortable, so in this workshop we use the 5Rhythms map to guide us and make choices from a body of wisdom.
At any age, the practice of dancing the 5Rhythms gives us a robust collection of tools for being human and dancing with change - with integrity, compassion, curiosity, fascination, humor and a big dose of trust in life.
In this workshop the 5Rhythms will be our map to discover the many ways that we move with something new and unknown, the dance of action and taking a risk, of making choices and ultimately surrendering to being new over and over again.
No experience needed - besides being human.
Cost: $85
