Upcoming Events in 2025

Shakkoi ( Ms. Koi to the youth) uses poetry & movement to help folks tap into their power of self expression. From her captivating story, to the way she encourages all to 'Release the Doubt & Step Out', there is no doubt that adding some Koi  will inspire creative wellness to all in attendance. 

She unpacks anger, grief and self love to help others gain coping mechanisms to learn how to unpack their minds during difficult times.
