ECSTATIC RHYTHMS · Cacao & Dance - Special Guest: Gyuriel Simon
ECSTATIC RHYTHMS · Cacao & Dance - Special Guest: Gyuriel Simon
# ECSTATIC RHYTHMS ## ​Cacao Ceremony & Freedom Dance ​**About the Event** ​Enter a collective ritual of presence, movement, and expression as we gather for **[Ecstatic Rhythms](https://www.notion.so/WEBSITE-sabinamedina-com-1284e61d096b80f1bd06eb75dc61198b?pvs=21&utm_source=luma)**. ​In a world that often pulls us into speed and disconnection, this evening is an invitation to slow down, drop into the body, and remember the joy of moving and expressing together — freely, consciously, and without masks. ​We begin by entering a shared meditative space and drinking **ceremonial Criollo cacao**, ethically sourced and cultivated in Venezuela. This heart-opening ritual is held with care and intention, creating a safe container to open the body, quiet the mind, and connect as a community in this unique moment. ​From there, we move into a **balancing breathwork, voice activation, and body awakening**, preparing the nervous system and inviting us to fully let go. This phase supports alignment on a physical, emotional, and energetic level — setting the ground for deep expression. ​The journey then unfolds into an **authentic ecstatic dance experience**, inspired by the ancient roots of dance before DJs existed. Through drums, shakers, our voices, and carefully curated soundscapes, we co-create a powerful movement ritual led by fire, rhythm, and presence. ​Influenced by the principles of **Five Rhythms**, the dance becomes a space to express, observe, and release — moving through emotions and elements, shedding fears and masks, and exploring mind, body, and spirit in many forms. This is a space to get creative, dance like no one is watching, and awaken a playful, youthful sense of freedom. ​We close by bringing everything home through a **deeply restorative gong and Tibetan bowl sound bath**, supporting integration, grounding, and nervous system regulation — completing the cycle of the evening. ​ BOOKINGS: https://luma.com/lpx0y1jb *** ## ​What to Expect * ​Ceremonial Criollo cacao (ethically sourced from Venezuela) * ​Guided meditation & intention setting * ​Breathwork, voice activation & body preparation * ​Ecstatic / freedom dance journey * ​Live elements (drums, shakers, voice) + curated sound journey * ​Closing gong & Tibetan bowl sound bath ​No dance experience is needed; just curiosity, presence, and a willingness to move. *** ## ​This Is for You If * ​You crave freedom of expression through movement * ​You want to reconnect with your body and inner rhythm * ​You feel called to dance in a conscious, substance-free space * ​You enjoy ritual, music, and embodied community experiences * ​You want to celebrate Life with depth and joy *** ## ​How to Prepare & Guidelines ​**Before the event** * ​It is recommended to arrive **2–4 hours lightly fasted** before consuming ceremonial cacao * ​If you eat beforehand, choose light, nourishing food * ​Please listen to your body and prepare accordingly ​**During the experience** * ​**No phones** (facilitators included) — this is a private, inward journey * ​**Dance barefoot** to connect with the ground * ​**No talking** — practice presence and respect others’ journeys * ​**No alcohol or drugs** — we hold a conscious, ethical, sacred space * ​**Consent & respect are fundamental** — we co-create safety for everyone ​**Arrival** * ​Arrive from **18:00** * ​Journey begins at **18:30 sharp** * ​**Doors close at 19:00** to honour the group container *** ## ​Facilitators​ ​\*\*[Sabina Medina](https://www.instagram.com/sabina.medina_/?utm_source=luma)\*\* ​Sabina Medina is the co-founder of **Samanà Space** and a movement facilitator devoted to creating grounded, safe spaces for presence, expression, and conscious community.

Este ritual de apertura del corazón se sostiene con cuidado e intención, creando un contenedor seguro para abrir el cuerpo, aquietar la mente y conectar como comunidad en este momento único. ​A continuación, transitamos hacia una **respiración consciente, activación de la voz y despertar corporal**, preparando el sistema nervioso e invitándonos a soltar por completo. Esta fase favorece la alineación física, emocional y energética, sentando las bases para una expresión profunda. ​El viaje continúa hacia una **experiencia auténtica de danza extática**, inspirada en las raíces ancestrales de la danza, antes de que existieran los DJs. A través de tambores, shakers, nuestras voces y paisajes sonoros cuidadosamente seleccionados, co-creamos un ritual de movimiento potente, guiado por el fuego, el ritmo y la presencia. ​Influenciada por los principios de **Five Rhythms**, la danza se convierte en un espacio para expresar, observar y liberar — moviéndonos a través de emociones y elementos, soltando miedos y máscaras, y explorando mente, cuerpo y espíritu en múltiples formas. Un espacio para crear, bailar como si nadie mirara y despertar una libertad lúdica y vital. ​Cerramos el ciclo llevando todo de vuelta al cuerpo con un **profundo baño de sonido con gong y cuencos tibetanos**, apoyando la integración, el enraizamiento y la regulación del sistema nervioso.

Trails & Ales! Blendon Woods Metro Park / Forbidden Root Restaurant & Brewery
Trails & Ales! Blendon Woods Metro Park / Forbidden Root Restaurant & Brewery
**History** The history of [Blendon Woods Metro Park](https://www.metroparks.net/parks-and-trails/blendon-woods/) began long before its 1951 opening, rooted in a landscape of rugged ridges and deep ravines that made the land unsuitable for traditional farming. In 1945, a report proposing a metropolitan park system for Franklin County specifically highlighted these cliffs of Bedford Shale as some of the "wildest land in the vicinity". Following this recommendation, the recently formed park district purchased the first 229 acres in early 1949. Because the terrain was so uneven, developers had to cut a mile-and-a-half-long roadway through dense woods just to bring in heavy equipment. This initial preservation effort ensured that the mature second-growth hardwood forests remained largely untouched by the urban expansion spreading toward Westerville. Opening day arrived on Labor Day, September 3, 1951, marking Blendon Woods as the second park in the Columbus and Franklin County Metro Parks system. The final push to open was a frantic race; the State Highway Department only finished the primary gravel access road four days before the gates opened. Early staff members, consisting of just four full-time employees, had to hand-dig pit toilets and learn construction skills on the fly to build the first picnic shelters. Despite the dusty conditions and limited facilities, the park was an immediate success, drawing massive crowds from across Central Ohio. By the end of the 1950s, annual visitation had already climbed to over 190,000 people. As the surrounding suburbs grew in the 1960s, the park faced severe overcrowding that threatened its natural habitats. In response, Franklin County voters passed the first Metro Parks levy in 1960, providing the funds necessary for a decade of steady expansion. During this era, the park nearly doubled in size, growing from 264 acres to over 570 acres by 1968. Planners also addressed a critical water shortage by collaborating with the U.S. Soil and Conservation Service to build a lake in 1964. This body of water originally served as a temporary reservoir before its role shifted toward conservation and wildlife support. The 1970s marked a transition toward the specialized wildlife and educational focus for which the park is known today. In 1971, the Walden Waterfowl Refuge was established around the 11-acre Thoreau Lake, creating a sanctuary that remains restricted to provide a quiet habitat for migratory birds. A formal nature center was also developed during this period, expanding on the guided Sunday walks that had been a park staple since the early 1950s. The park’s famous "Monarch Mansion" also became a prominent fixture, starting a long tradition of raising and releasing thousands of monarch butterflies each September. These initiatives cemented the park’s reputation as a premier destination for birders and nature enthusiasts. In more recent decades, Blendon Woods has continued to modernize while maintaining its wilderness character. The 10-acre Natural Play Area was added in 2017, encouraging kids to explore the ravines and woods off-trail. This was followed by the opening of a $1.5 million inclusive playground in April 2025, designed to accommodate children of all physical abilities. The nature center also underwent major renovations to include immersive, three-dimensional exhibits and a new butterfly house. Today, the park encompasses 653 acres, preserving a unique geologic and biological corridor amidst the bustling Westerville and Northeast Columbus area. **Map of the Park** Here is a map of [Blendon Woods](https://www.metroparks.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/BLN_map_Inclusive-Playground-and-Butterfly-Trail_May-2025_1980px.png). **Summary** For this event, we will hike the Lake View, Hickory Ridge, Ripple Rock, Overlook, Brookside, and Sugarbush Trails. This sounds like a lot, but it will really be only a little over five miles. Blendon Woods has a few hills here and there, but it's not one of the more strenuous metro parks. **Where We'll Meet** We'll meet just in front of the Nature Center. This is about a mile into the park from the main entrance. You have to go past the Ranger Station and the Shadblow Reservable Area to get to it, so don't stop too early at the Ranger Station and get it confused with the Nature Center. **After the Hike** Afterward, we will head over to [Forbidden Root Restaurant & Brewery](https://forbiddenroot.com/restaurants/columbus-ohio/) at Easton for [drinks](https://forbiddenroot.com/restaurants/columbus-ohio/#dinner-menu) and [food](https://forbiddenroot.com/wp-content/uploads/Cbus-Food.pdf). We should be there by 5 if you can't make the hike and just want to join us for drinks. The brewery's actual address is [4080 Worth Ave, Columbus, OH 43219](https://www.google.com/maps/place/4080+Worth+Ave,+Columbus,+OH+43219/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x88388a86d10b6619:0x4d42b470a5cf11d3?sa=X&ved=1t:242&ictx=111); however, I recommend pointing your GPS to the [Worth Garage](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Worth+Garage/@40.0542293,-82.9137962,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x88388b4df6082825:0x17582f0eccd9dda1!8m2!3d40.0542293!4d-82.9137962!16s%2Fg%2F11rzfvvv8b?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDQxNS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) across the street. Parking in this garage is free as long as you're not on the first floor, and it is literally right next to the brewery.
Franklin Park Conservatory / Columbus Brewing Company
Franklin Park Conservatory / Columbus Brewing Company
**History** The [Franklin Park Conservatory](https://www.fpconservatory.org/)’s roots trace back to 1852 when the Franklin County Agricultural Society purchased 88 acres of land to host the Ohio State Fair. After the fair moved to its permanent home, the city of Columbus transformed the grounds into Franklin Park in 1884. This transition shifted the space from a temporary event site to a dedicated public green space for the growing community. The park became a central hub for outdoor recreation and early civic gatherings in the neighborhood. In 1895, the landmark Victorian-style Palm House opened its doors, drawing heavy inspiration from the Glass Palace of the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. This iron and glass structure became an immediate icon, housing exotic plants that residents would otherwise never see in the Midwest. It remains the oldest part of the facility and serves as a primary link to the conservatory’s 19th-century origins. For decades, it stood as a singular testament to grand horticultural architecture in Central Ohio. A major turning point arrived in 1992 when Columbus hosted AmeriFlora '92, an international horticultural exhibition. This massive event prompted a $16 million renovation and expansion, adding significantly more greenhouse space and the Dorothy M. Davis Showhouse. The festival put the conservatory on the international map and fundamentally changed its scale and ambition. Following the event, the facility transitioned from a city-run park to a private, non-profit organization. In 2003, the conservatory’s identity was further defined through a long-term partnership with world-renowned glass artist Dale Chihuly. After a successful exhibition, the Friends of the Conservatory purchased most of the glass installations, creating the largest permanent collection of Chihuly’s work in a botanical setting. These vibrant glass sculptures are now woven throughout the biomes, blending art with nature. This addition helped cement the conservatory as a premier cultural destination rather than just a botanical garden. Recent years have seen the site expand beyond the glass walls to emphasize community engagement and outdoor education. The 2018 opening of the Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation Children’s Garden added two acres of interactive landscape designed for hands-on learning. The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company Community Garden Campus also provides local residents with space to grow their own food and learn sustainable practices. Today, the conservatory balances its historic Victorian charm with modern commitments to local ecology and the Columbus community. **Maps of the Conservatory** Here is the [main map](https://www.fpconservatory.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/franklin-park-zones-scaled.jpg) of the Conservatory grounds. Here's a [map of the areas](https://www.fpconservatory.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/ConstructionMap-2026.jpg) in which the Conservatory has ongoing construction (see below). **Summary** For this event, we'll explore Columbus's highly-rated and very popular Conservatory. As mentioned above, the Conservatory is doing renovations on parts of the facility. These renovations are scheduled to be ongoing until the Fall of next year. Basically, no matter when you go to the Conservatory over the next 18 months, you're going to see some metaphorical orange barrels. So let's just go now. **Tickets and pricing** On the first Sunday of every month, the Conservatory is free for residents of Franklin County and the city of Columbus. You must bring an ID to receive this discount. (Yes, they do check.) Otherwise, tickets are $25.20. Members of the Columbus Zoo (of which I am one) do get a discount on tickets, though I have never actually bought a ticket to the Conservatory (I've always gone on free days). I believe the discount is $4. Parking is always free. If you have additional questions about pricing or whether and for what you qualify, you can reach the Conservatory at 614-715-8000. **Where we'll meet** We will meet just outside the main entrance. I guarantee there's going to be a line. The Conservatory is always popular on free days, and especially in nice weather. **Your GPS is stupid!** Be careful simply typing "Franklin Park Conservatory" in your GPS and going where it tells you. The only way to access the parking lot to the Conservatory is off of Broad Street. Unfortunately, since Google Maps is unable to find its way out of a wet paper bag, it has a tendency to want to take people to a mythical, non-existent Conservatory entrance on Nelson Road. If your GPS does this, just drive to the north side of the Conservatory along Broad Street. Your GPS should then redirect you to the main Conservatory entrance. If your GPS doesn't, then throw your phone away\* and look for the big Conservatory sign on the south side of Broad Street between Nelson Road and Franklin Park West. You also should be able to use the map pin I've provided, below, and it should properly direct you to where you need to drive. \* Don't really do this. **After the event** After stopping to smell the roses, for those that are interested, we'll head to the nearby [Columbus Brewing Company Beer Hall](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/) for [drinks](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/#draft-list) and [lunch](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/#food-menu). The Beer Hall's actual address is [200 Kelton Ave, Columbus, OH 43205](https://www.google.com/maps/place/200+Kelton+Ave,+Columbus,+OH+43205/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x883889a94ac4acad:0xadb2e60240dbc38b?sa=X&ved=1t:242&ictx=111) (it's literally just on the south side of the Conservatory). Be sure this is where your GPS is taking you when you use it, as the Brewing Company has a taproom on Harrison Avenue that is *not* what you want for this event. We should be at the Beer Hall by 1 if you can't make the Conservatory and just want to join us for drinks.
