26/08/2026

We live in a culture that measures our value by output, availability, and continuous performance. In a system like that, taking time to pause and reconnect with your own body before earning it feels almost wrong.

But resting isn’t something you have to prove you deserve. Reclaiming your energy and listening to your own rhythm, without needing a permission slip or a protest sign, is a quiet, radical act of sovereignty.

Rebellion doesn’t always have to look loud or grand. Sometimes it looks like:

✨ Sitting down to breathe before you finish your to-do list

✨ Pausing before hitting reply on an email that demands immediate access to you

✨ Choosing a clear “no” when an uncomfortable “yes” would be easier for everyone else

The next time guilt tries to step in when you choose yourself, remember that coming home to yourself is how you reclaim your power.

Sign up: ashasplacelisbon.com

This class is where roots meet the present.

AfroFusion fuses the rhythms and aesthetics of traditional Mozambican dance with contemporary movement, creating a space that’s expressive, grounded, and alive.

Each session weaves together African rhythmic patterns, percussive energy, and somatic awareness, inviting you to explore how your body moves, communicates, and connects. Whether you’re new to dance or have been moving your whole life, you belong here.

What to expect: A full-body, rhythm-driven experience that honors ancestral movement traditions while creating space for your own expression. No experience required.

Somatic Movement & Release
August 29th - 11:30 AM

FEEL IT. MOVE IT.

A somatic movement and emotional release practice.
What if, instead of pushing away a difficult emotion, you allowed yourself to feel it?

This one-hour practice invites you to slow down, turn inward, and reconnect with what is happening inside you.

We’ll start with gentle somatic movement and guided meditation. We’ll use the body as a way into our emotional experience. With curiosity and without judgment, we’ll explore our feelings and make room for the sensations, emotions, and energy that may want to be felt.

Then, little by little, we’ll let the body take the lead.

We’ll move from stillness into free movement and dance, allowing whatever is present to express itself without needing to explain, fix, or control it.

No choreography. No dance experience needed. There is no right or wrong way to move.

Just a gentle space to feel, move, and reconnect with yourself.

The practice:

* Gentle somatic movement

* Guided meditation

* Emotional awareness and embodied exploration

* Free movement and intuitive dance

* A moment to arrive, feel, and let the body speak

Duration: 60 minutes
All levels welcome. No previous experience needed.

Come as you are.
Bring whatever you’re carrying.
Let your body move the rest.

Amalia Sirica, Yoga Teacher, New York

Amalia carries three worlds in her body: the United States, where she was born and raised, Portugal, and Brazil, which shaped her culturally and gave her a global community. Somehow, all of that shows up in the way she moves and teaches. As a clinical social worker, a dancer, and a 200-hour registered yoga teacher, she understands the body the way few people do: not just as something to stretch or strengthen, but as a place where you can learn to feel safe. That shapes everything she teaches.

Her classes are Vinyasa-based, but weave in some elements of dance in a way that feels less like a workout and more like a conversation your body has been waiting to have. The structure is there when you need it, but so is the freedom, which makes her classes amazing.

Amalia believes movement belongs to everyone. Not just the flexible, not just the experienced, not just the ones who already feel at home in their bodies. Everyone. And she teaches like she means it.

Full Moon Ceremony
August 29th - 7 PM
Sign up at ashasplacelisbon.com

Womb Healing Full Moon Ceremony with the intention to hold space for the feminine, connect with intuition, go inwards & learn to listen to the calling within. We open with a tea ceremony from a special plant connected to August’s Pisces Full Moon, and intuitively listen to its message. We will learn about the moon as a portal to feminine connection, natural cycles, seasons, how to work with the moon for cyclical living, and the release of weight and integration of the emotional body through a meditative womb healing journey, honouring our inner waters and cycles.

An evening to release and connect with your intuition. Empowering ourselves and one another through sisterhood and remembrance.

Toltec Cacao Ceremony & Sound Journey

Join us for a deeply nourishing evening of ceremonial Wild Mayan Cacao, ancestral wisdom, breathwork, sound healing, and heart-centred connection.

Guided by Maestro Ce Ācatl Rodrigo (oneness_within), a Toltec Wisdom Keeper and master ceremonialist with over 30 years of experience.
This sacred gathering invites you to slow down, reconnect with your heart, and remember the wisdom that lives within.

Working with authentic Wild Mayan Cacao, we’ll journey with Toltec teachings on self-mastery, guided meditation, Tibetan breathwork, a drum journey, sound healing, and a traditional Limpia (energetic cleansing and blessing).

This ceremony is an invitation to release emotional blockages, cultivate inner peace, and reconnect with your authentic self in a safe and supportive ceremonial space.
