What is Qoya?
Qoya is an expressive dance and movement practice that incorporates elements of mindfulness, yoga, and dance. Qoya is conceptualized as a contemplative movement practice and a form of mind-body medicine. It is based on a simple idea - through movement, we remember our essence as wise, wild, and free.
Qoya is also a powerful adjunct to mental health treatment, particularly when client goals involve strengthening the mind-body connection and increasing emotional awareness through expressive arts. Qoya offers an outlet for expression and a tool for transformation that draws on the inherent wisdom of the body. The best way to learn about Qoya is to try it! Join me for an upcoming class.
Join me for the 2024 Embodied Intuition Retreat held in the beautiful mountains of Virginia! This weekend retreat includes two Qoya inspired movement sessions, expressive art, nature rituals, and community.
“
The first time I tried Qoya with Laura, it was such an eye opening experience - I was gaining something I didn’t even know I needed. The most amazing part of it is it continues to provide that same experience each time I join with others in the circle. I always experience a sense of clarity, connection, and wholeness that I haven’t experienced anywhere else. It’s a gentle “welcome home” to my authentic and true self.
