“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly ARE.” - Carl Jung

Some moments transform you from the inside out. For me, Chakradance™ was one of them.

I first fell in love with this healing modality by experiencing it directly with its founder Natalie Southgate, and her team — once in Bali, once in London. Two very different settings, the same embodied, undeniable shift. Something in my body understood what was happening before my mind could understand it. It wasn't performance. It wasn't choreography. It was movement as a conversation with my own energy system — honest, unscripted, revealing, healing and deeply intelligent.

Both experiences were transformative in ways that I continue to integrate. Which is how you know something is real and sustainable. Our energetic signature is indeed dynamic. We are multi-layered, complex creatures that need to tend and prioritize our energetic health and vitality regularly. Chakradance™ is a safe and gentle healing movement practice that does just that.

Chakradance™ is a synergy of chakra-resonant music, free-flowing movement, and visualization to activate healing within each chakra. You don't need to be a dancer. You don't need to know anything about the chakras. You need only to be willing to turn your attention inward, allow your body to move naturally, and listen to your body with non-judgement, compassion, and curiosity.

What makes this experience different from other movement practices is that it doesn't ask you to follow someone else's rhythm. It invites you to discover the freedom of your own movement. That simple invitation, for most people, is a radical one.

As a certified Chakradance™ facilitator, I offer this work because I know firsthand what is possible when you free up the trapped energy to remove the blockages in your body that limit embodying your highest potential. This work is dynamic. What you free on the inside expresses itself outwardly. Chakradance™ is a practice to free the vibrancy of our life-force energy to operate at our optimal capacity and live from the fullness of who we truly are and what we are capable of!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Absolutely not! Chakradance™ is a free movement modality. There are no set steps and you dance as if no one is watching, to custom-created music in a sacred space. You dance with your eyes closed, or gaze gently towards the floor.

  • During each workshop we explore one or more chakras through custom-created music, guided imagery and your own free, improvised dance, done with your eyes softly closed, and a mandala art practice. This begins to activate inner experiences. It’s almost like entering into a waking dream. You may see images in your mind’s eye while you are dancing or gain insights. You may also experience feelings, emotions or physical sensations. Classes, comprised of a small group of people, are held in candle lit spaces. Although music and dance form the primary focus, sessions also include sensing, working with elements and colours, and short meditation

  • No, I will share information about the relevant chakras during the workshop.

    As a starting poing, the chakra system contains within it seven major chakras, each acting as an energetic gateway allowing universal energy to flow in and out of our systems. Each chakra corresponds with particular body organs and reflects an aspect of consciousness on an emotional, psychological and spiritual level.

    Each chakra also has its own vibrational frequency as well as an attributed element, archetype, animal, planet etc. These can all be used as pathways into the chakras enabling us to connect more deeply with the energies existing within each one.

  • Our You A.R.E. Divine hosted Chakradance™ workshops cost $35 dollars per person to attend. Booking is made at the time of payment. Venmo is the only form of payment accepted. Venmo account is @Heather-Ayers-13.

Introducing the Chakras

Rooted in ancient Hindu and yogic tradition, chakras are the seven energy centres that run from the base of your spine to the crown of your head. Think of them as your body's internal wiring — when they're open and balanced, energy flows freely. When they're blocked or sluggish, you feel it long before you can name it.

ROOT — Muladhara | Earth | LAM | 396 Hz

I am safe. I belong. I am home. The foundation. Safety, survival, belonging, and the body. Developmental stage: womb to 12 months. Wounds: abandonment, instability, ancestral trauma.

Dance with the rhythm of mother earth.

Chakradance Principle One: I consider my own physical wellbeing to be important

SOLAR PLEXUS — Manipura | Fire | RAM | 528 Hz

I am worthy. I stand in my power. The inner sun. Will, identity, confidence, and personal power. Developmental stage: 18 months to 3 years. Wounds: shame, humiliation, disempowerment.

Move boldly. Take up space.

Chakradance Principle Three: I endeavor to take responsibility for myself and my actions

THROAT — Vishuddha | Ether | HAM | 741 Hz

I speak. I am heard. My voice matters. The seat of authentic expression. Truth, creativity, and the power of the spoken word. Developmental stage: 29 to 35. Wounds: silencing, shaming, not being believed.

Hold space for silence as much as sound.

Chakradance Principle Five: I endeavor to communicate truthfully

CROWN — Sahasrara | Consciousness | NNg / OM / Silence | 963 Hz

I am connected. I surrender. I am home. The thousand-petaled lotus. Pure awareness, divine connection, and grace. Developmental stage: 42 and beyond. Wounds: religious trauma, meaninglessness, spiritual disconnection.

This chakra cannot be achieved — only surrendered into.

Principle Seven: I value my connection to spirit

SACRAL — Svadhisthana | Water | VAM | 417 Hz

I feel. I create. I flow. The creative womb. Emotion, pleasure, desire, and sexuality. Developmental stage: 6 months to 2 years. Wounds: shame, sexual trauma, emotional suppression.

Move freely. Let it flow.

Chakradance Principle Two: I consider my own emotional wellbeing to be important

HEART — Anahata | Air | YAM | 639 Hz

I love. I forgive. I am open. The bridge between earth and spirit. Love, compassion, grief, and forgiveness. Developmental stage: 21 to 28. Wounds: heartbreak, loss, conditional love.

The medicine is presence.

Chakradance Principle Four: I value the qualities of compassion and kindness

THIRD EYE — Ajna | Light | OM | 852 Hz

I see. I trust. I know. The inner eye. Intuition, vision, discernment, and wisdom. Developmental stage: 35 to 42. Wounds: gaslighting, dismissed perception, denied spiritual experience.

Ground well after this work.

Chakradance Principle Six: I consider my intuition to be a source of wisdom
