Elegibo Heart Warrior Training
Elejibo is a blend of African Dance, Martial Arts, Qi Gong, and Orisha Medicine Ways, a series of practices that balances and grounds us physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Elejibo! is a reclaiming of Afro-Indigenous Wisdom Ways for cultivating Iwa Pele, good character, within ourselves, and living in right relationship with Earth Community and All Our Relations. This training begins every day.
The legend of Elegibo harkens back to a time when we were warriors. Brazil was the first stop out of Africa, where the majority of slaves were deposited, before continuing on to the Caribbean and USA. Elegibo speaks of this time when we refused the slavery of Christianity, of Colonization, of the Capitalism that used our bodies, and we broke free. We established our own quilombos - free communities that we built with our own hands and our own hearts - united like the principle of Sankofa, we look back and re-member to strengthen ourselves.
Elejibo! is the Heart Warrior training that precedes all work together. The Morning Prayer integrates Heart-Mind with Earth Community and balances our physical and energetic body. We also do a Sound healing practice called "the Art of Emotional Alchemy," which balances our emotions. Essentially Afro-Indigenous practices, these Standing Meditations incorporate training in Martial Arts and Qi-Gong. Connect with us today to learn more about our Heart Warrior Training.
