Introduction to EmbodyBirth™ and BellydanceBirth
Birth is meant to be an instinctual and embodied experience but when a pregnant woman is engulfed in fears surrounding childbirth, it’s easy for them to become stuck in seeing birth as a negative experience.
EmbodyBirth™
is a birth preparation program that helps mothers address their fears so they can immerse themselves in their birth preparation journey with renewed clarity and confidence.
EmbodyBirth™ is NOT like any other childbirth preparation program. It is a comprehensive deep-dive into self-discovery!
This 2-days course reassures and affirms a woman’s innate power to give birth and it always places mothers and babies at the center of the experience.
If you have a strong desire to support expectant mothers with their babies through this rite of passage, this is the program for you! The course will be taught in Italian.

SHAMANIC DRUM
with Luigi Jannarone
“The sound of the drum is the voice of the Great Spirit. When it speaks, our hearts beat together as one” (Black Elk-Sioux Spiritual Guide)
In shamanic symbology the drum is the beating of the heart and its sound makes us vibrate together with the heart of the cosmos. It is the language that unites Father Sky to Mother Earth and which is expressed with the powerful voice of thunder. It is also the means of transport by which the shaman moves to the different worlds: his rhythmic beating it takes him to other states of consciousness, to trance, to Spirit. It is in the inner rhythm that the ancient roots of the drum sink, born with the aim of amplifying the percussive act of clapping hands or any other part of the body. Thus man learns to give form and regular structure to his song and through the continuous beating of the drum he connects to the constant cyclicity of nature and to the rhythmic pulsations of his manifestations.
