SONG CIRCLE

A Sacred Circle of Transformation and Legacy.

In this circle, we weave a space of support, healing, and connection for women, guided by the ancestral wisdom of our grandmothers and the cosmovision of the Moondance Xochimeztli. Our purpose is to elevate our voices, heal our relationships, and learn to work with internal and external elements, always with profound respect and alignment with the teachings we’ve received.

Sacred Intention

This is not just a circle for singers; it is a space where women become carriers of elements, medicine, and legacy. We honor the words of our grandmothers, transmitting their teachings with integrity and without altering their essence, preserving their loving legacy.

Here, respect, discipline, commitment, love, and congruence are fundamental pillars. Together, we sustain and weave a safe space where we continue learning, singing, and dancing, always connected to our mission and our community.
