Aya used to be afraid of snakes ...
I was at a music festival a few years back when I met Rose Mary, and shared with her my fear of snakes, a completely irrational yet ingrained dislike of the serpent. Later that weekend, another sister brought Damiana ( a 8 ft red tailed boa) and placed her over my shoulders. I instinctively took off all my layers so that I could feel Damiana fully on my bare skin, and instead of repulsion which I expected, I was fully entranced.

The serpents are master somatic movers, isolating every muscle in their body, and moving fluidly across your body, as though giving you the most delicate massage, and dancing with your energy at the same time.

After that, I spent days at Rose’s moving and learning from Damiana, and other serpents like her. Through them I feel my kundalini awakening, from their dance I feel the divine feminine flow through me as well as a deep connection to my sexual power.

As we remember who we are we use breathwork, to explore the subtle energies moving throughout our bodies, allowing for stillness, and letting our movements rise up from within.

Meet some of the Serpents!

DAMIANA is a 6 foot Colombian Red Tail Boa who found her way to the Serpent Sanctum in 2015, leaving behind a life of urban isolation and neglect. Although when she first arrived to the Sanctum Damiana was depleted and weak, she has blossomed beautifully among the joys of sisterhood and dance and loves cuddling up to her many admirers. Damiana’s healing powers are profound, and she seeks out and uses her sensitivity especially with those whose suffering is intense.

SHIVA is a 7 year old pastel royal python who has been dancing with Serpent Sanctum since 2012. He is a charmer and loves meeting new people and dancing. Shiva loves other snakes and prefers to be housed with friends. He and Risa below are parents to 4 cutie wigglers who will also be joining us.

RISA is a really cute pastel Royal Python with a mysterious part. Because she wasn’t handled much by her previous caretakers, Risa can be shy at first—but once she warms up to you, she is a fabulous dancer and loves to crown. Risa is quite curious and enjoys exploring the many paths and people she meets through her work with Serpent Sanctum. She is a powerful hunter with strong instincts and a deep medicine of truth seeking. Risa’s sweet and adventurous spirit invites each person she meets to smile and laugh with her on the road of life!
