A Conversation with Christian Pankhurst and Maanee Chrystal about the upcoming Somatic Shadow & Circle Work Facilitator Training they are hosting in the USA and The Netherlands.
Meet Maanee Chrystal, a somatic integrative trauma therapist, dance therapist, erotic educator, and the pioneering spirit behind the Somatic Institute for Women. Marni's dedication to exploring the shadow, those hidden, suppressed, and denied aspects of self, has illuminated paths for countless souls seeking depth, healing, and authenticity in their personal and professional lives.
Meet Christian Pankhurst, the founder of Heart iQ, a visionary dedicated to deep transformational work within group and community settings. Christian specializes in heart-centered communication, group dynamics, and embodied practices that invite us to expand into our full emotional and energetic range, embracing the shadows that have long been exiled or shamed.
In this exclusive video, Maanee and Christian delve into the heart of their collaboration, sharing insights into their personal journeys, philosophies, and the synergistic power of their combined methodologies. This is more than just an introduction; it's an open door to the profound realms of somatic awareness, integration, and the liberation of our collective shadows.
