An activation of inner glow. . .are you ready?

DreamSpinners (Aleah Long, Yaniyah Pearson, Tory Trujillo, and guest Brianna Dixon) present a Winter Solstice Ceremonial performance, a dynamic, participatory experience that blends spoken word, movement, music, and visual storytelling, drawing from the unique experiences of diasporic and indigenous peoples on colonized lands. It speaks to resilience, redefining self and identity, while reaching for overarching wisdom and optimism in these tumultuous times. Soundscapes, visual projections, song, vocalizations, and ritualistic elements will create an atmosphere that fosters deep engagement and reflection. Are you ready?

Part 2

BlüPearl Retreat: Authentic Voice, Authentic Presence
12/20/25 11a-3p
For ages 18 and Older
A One-Day Introduction

Guided by Aleah Long and Yaniyah Pathfinder Obatecumsela, you’re invited to a powerful daylong journey into your voice, your presence, and your deeper self.

This immersive workshop introduces the BlüPearl method—an approach to reconnecting with your body, your sound, and your soul’s inner compass. You’ll explore how sound, breath, and intention help align your energy, clear inner noise, and awaken what’s already within you.

Through guided practices and sound-based transmissions, you’ll begin to:

• Strengthen the connection between your voice and your truth
• Tap into the subtle intelligence of your energy body
• Move from disconnection to clarity and coherence
• Listen deeply—to yourself and the world around you

No performance. No pretending. Just the power of your authentic, resonant self—fully present.

In a world full of noise, it’s time to return to our interconnected authentic, and sovereign being.
