The Power Of Being SEEN

* a 90-min TEDx watch party + micro-class for women on the journey from nice to kind who hold space for others *

Monday May 20th @ 5p Pacific

Email Kellita to reserve your spot, or to be notified of future sessions

I’m excited to be offering this event for kind, soulful, sensitive women helpers, creators, leaders and visionaries.

The premise of the event is this: when it’s safe to be seen as ourselves, who we authentically are emerges, naturally + joyfully. And when we generously reveal our radiant essences – aka our souls embodied – we become beacons for other women and humans to reach for this experience for themselves. I call this Showgirl Awakening.

This event gives a taste of the philosophy on which all Showgirl Awakening programming is based, and is an inspiring, nourishing standalone event in its own right.

The viewing of this TEDx talk is healing on its own. Reflecting on it together magnifies the effect. Sprinkling in a taste of how to begin practicing coming alive in the way I articulate in the talk magnifies this gift :).

This event could be a good fit for you if:

  • You are a light and a rock for others, whether professionally or personally … or both! You’re likely a coach, therapist, “go-to” confidante, mama, healer, teacher, artist, empath, mystic, visionary, leader, changemaker and conscious creator of the new world. Yet you are more comfortable holding space for and spotlight on the other, rather than on you. Your need to be seen in your fullness and wholeness and radiance is as yet unmet, or at least too infrequently met!

  • You long to feel more like yourself, even if your aren’t sure exactly what that means.You are missing an element in the loving design of your life … and that element is YOU!

  • You often over-edit yourself. About 75% – or more – of what you have to share gets blocked from ever being expressed … and the one who blocks it is YOU! You are constipated with expression that wants to get out, and at the same time, you are the strict gatekeeper of your precious, unrepeated words, movements, points of view creations of all kinds.

  • You are drawn to creative expression – even if it intimidates you – such as dance, movement and improv, costume-like clothing and glitter, as well as embodied movement-based practices.

  • You are a Highly Sensitive Person who often has bigger feelings than feel safe to have in our world. Your go-to to work with this has often been numbing out, freezing or straight up dissociating. Leaving your body this often no longer appeals to you. You’d like to practice a way to stay present in your body, and not merely present, but have the option to radiate your soul’s essence.

What we’ll cover during the event:

  • We’ll briefly introduce ourselves, then we’ll watch the 17-min TEDx talk, ‘The power of being SEEN: Burlesque as a healing way home to yourself. After watching the talk, we’ll reflect on it together.

  • We’ll practice some simple embodied exercises to feel what it’s like to be seen in safe space. You’ll have full choice over which role you play. You can choose to only witness, rather than be witnessed, if that’s your pleasure.

This is a no charge experiential, interactive session in the company of a supportive group of women.

All participants will be asked to have their Zoom videos on, to create safety and connection in the group. Please only sign up if you are comfortable with this, and are able to stay for the full 90-minutes of the workshop.

Email me to RSVP for 5/20 5p Pacific event.

I’m limiting the number of seats to create an in-person feel. So my request is, if you book a place, you show up.

If you’d like to come but if the date doesn’t work, let me know and I’ll notify you of future dates as I schedule them. Or you can offer to host me to lead this event at a time that works for you and your community!

Love + Shimmies,

Kellita

PS This workshop is not a 90-minute sales pitch [you know the kind I mean!]. My intention is to facilitate an enjoyable, inspiring space for new perspectives, new experiences and connection!

This session is designed to be a nourishing standalone event, and if you are curious about seeking my support on your journey, it’s also a great way to experience me, and discern if we might be a fit for one another.

Towards the end of the workshop, I’ll spend no more than 5 minutes letting you know how you might experience more of Showgirl Awakening.

I’m a performing + teaching artist, embodiment + authenticity facilitator, conscious burlesque mentor, speaker and author.

For over 2 decades, I’ve designed and facilitated workshops and shows that help women revel in their bodies, reveal their radiant essences, and receive what they desire, from San Francisco to New Orleans, Hollywood to Montreal, and Paris to Tokyo and now to all places at once via the magic of Zoom! I’m a 5-time finalist at the Burlesque Hall of Fame, 5-time international burlesque festival headliner and Queen of Carnaval San Francisco 2008.

I integrate into my work, over a decade of practice in transformative modalities, including EFT, NLP, Systemic Constellations and Relational Neuroscience, to name a few.  My mission is to support women in unifying body, mind, heart, spirit & soul, and in expressing the power, truth and beauty that is innate to each and every one.
