Somatics in a Time of Empire: An Invitation for the Hive-Curious

Curious about what The Hive is all about?

You’re invited to a rare and intimate preview of The Hive! While our 2025 Cohort of Fellows gathers for our quarterly retreat, you're invited to get to know some of our Members, staff, and Fellows, and then join us for the "lecture" portion of our retreat.

This special morning features a conversation between La Shanda Sugg and D. Lamar Hughes, two of The Hive’s Core Faculty whose friendship and shared practice ground this session in warmth and radical honesty. Together, they bring decades of experience in trauma-informed healing, spiritual care, and liberatory community organizing.

Their topic: Why turn our attention to somatics in an age of crumbling empire?

Where empire demands control, liberation asks for trust. What does it mean to practice embodiment not as a way to fix or manage our bodies, but to listen to them? To receive their wisdom? To move toward collective healing?

We’ll begin with coffee and some mingling, then step into this live session drawn from our current Fellowship retreat. Limited to just 20 guests, this event offers a taste of what The Hive's all about. You'll be invited to join us for a summer class, become a Member, or even sign up to be the first to know about our 2026 Fellowship Cohort.

We look forward to seeing you!

Find your people, Find your practice. We are a place where community and contemplation meet. No more trying to be mindful alone.

 

The Hive exists to develop creative, compassionate, and mindfully-engaged citizens in the Cincinnati region through small group classes and workshops. We have curated a collective of proven teachers, facilitators, and spiritual directors to help guide your learning in mindfulness, contemplation, art and action. We hope you'll try a class and like it enough to become a regular member. Your partnership helps make this nonprofit possible.

 

(As a social enterprise, the Hive shares our story with photos of classes and events. If you are opposed to sharing your lovely face let is know and we'll do our best to avoid that. But by using an event ticket you agree to let The Hive share your image in photo, audio, and video.)
