The Listening Body | New Moon Woman's Gathering with The Listening Wild
THE LISTENING BODY
A New Moon Women’s Gathering
Saturday, November 7, 2026
A space to slow down, reconnect, and return to yourself.
AN EVENING OF CONNECTION, REFLECTION & RENEWAL
The Listening Body is an intimate women’s gathering created to offer something we rarely give ourselves: the space to pause, feel, listen, and reconnect.
Together, we’ll come into a space of warmth and intention, where women can gather without expectations, without judgment, and without the pressure of having to be anything other than themselves.
Inspired by the symbolism of the new moon, this gathering invites us to reflect on what we’re ready to release, what we’re ready to welcome, and how we can begin making more room for ourselves.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Tea & Connection
Gather over tea and meaningful conversation in a welcoming environment designed to encourage authentic connection.
Reflection & Intention
Take a moment away from the noise of everyday life to reconnect with yourself, reflect on your needs, and create space for new intentions.
Community & Shared Experience
Experience the power of women coming together, sharing their experiences, supporting one another, and remembering that we don’t have to navigate everything alone.
A Moment for Yourself
An invitation to slow down, reconnect with your body, and leave feeling a little more grounded, supported, and present.
WHO IS THIS GATHERING FOR?
For the woman who is always taking care of everyone else.
For the woman navigating change, seeking connection, or simply needing a moment to herself.
For the woman who wants to feel more connected to her body, her community, and the person she is becoming.
Whether you arrive with a friend or come on your own, you’re welcome here.
You don’t need prior experience with meditation, movement, or women’s circles. All you need is a willingness to show up for yourself.

ANCIENT WISDOM FOR MODERN WELLNESS with Nature Power Acupuncture
ANCIENT WISDOM
Discover the Healing Traditions of Chinese Medicine
In collaboration with Nature Power Acupuncture
For thousands of years, Traditional Chinese Medicine has approached health through the connection between the body, mind, and the systems that keep us functioning.
While modern medicine often focuses on treating specific symptoms and conditions, Traditional Chinese Medicine offers an additional perspective, exploring patterns, balance, and the relationship between different aspects of our well-being.
But what does that actually mean for you?
Join Body & Mind Pilates Training Studio and Nature Power Acupuncture for Ancient Wisdom, an educational wellness experience exploring the principles, practices, and potential benefits of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
From understanding acupuncture and the body’s traditional energy pathways to exploring approaches to pain, stress, sleep, and overall wellness, this gathering invites you to look at your health through a different lens.
WHAT YOU’LL DISCOVER
1. Understanding Traditional Chinese Medicine
What makes a healing tradition practiced for thousands of years relevant today?
Explore the foundations of Traditional Chinese Medicine, including its holistic approach to wellness, the traditional concept of Qi (vital energy), and the importance of balance within the body.
Discover how practitioners use these principles to understand patterns of health and well-being.
2. Acupuncture & Its Potential Benefits
You’ve probably heard of acupuncture, but do you know why people seek it out?
Learn how acupuncture works, what a session involves, and why it continues to be studied and used as a complementary wellness practice.
We’ll explore its potential applications, including:
Pain & Muscle Tension: How acupuncture may help manage certain types of chronic pain, including back and neck discomfort.
Stress & Relaxation: Why people incorporate acupuncture into their routines to support relaxation and overall well-being.
Sleep & Rest: The relationship between stress, rest, and traditional approaches to supporting healthier routines.
Headaches & Migraines: How acupuncture may help reduce the frequency of certain headaches and migraines.
Whole-Body Wellness: How acupuncture fits into a broader approach to caring for the body.
3. The Connection Between Body, Mind & Energy
Why does stress sometimes seem to affect everything, from the way we sleep to the way our bodies feel?
Explore how Traditional Chinese Medicine interprets the connections between physical health, emotional well-being, and the traditional concept of energy flow.
Learn about meridians, the pathways described in Chinese medicine, and how practitioners use this framework when approaching wellness.
4. Ancient Practices for Modern Life
Traditional Chinese Medicine is more than acupuncture.
Discover how its broader philosophy incorporates intentional lifestyle habits, movement, rest, and other approaches intended to support well-being.
Explore how these traditions can encourage a more thoughtful relationship with your body and inspire conversations about incorporating complementary practices into your wellness routine.

MEDITATION WITH SACHIN
THE ART OF BEING PRESENT
A Meditation Experience with Sachin
Join us for a special meditation experience led by Sachin (@nycsachin), where we’ll explore the power of mindfulness, the connection between mind and body, and how meditation can become a meaningful part of your everyday life
WHAT WILL YOU TAKE AWAY?
Meditation isn’t about having an empty mind. It’s about developing a different relationship with your thoughts, emotions, and the world around you.
Discover how a consistent meditation practice can help you:
Manage everyday stress with greater awareness
Improve concentration and mental clarity
Develop emotional balance and patience
Become more present in your relationships and daily experiences
Create moments of calm, even during life’s busiest seasons
MEET SACHIN
After two decades on Wall Street and building companies as a founder, Sachin Barot knew how to keep going under pressure. Learning how to slow down was a different story. A 10-day silent Vipassana retreat gave him the space to listen to himself in a way he hadn’t before. Today, Sachin shares what he learned through small-group meditation classes, community gatherings, and immersive retreats that bring together meditation, silent hikes in nature, and time for reflection.
Sachin @nycsachin, will guide this special experience at Body & Mind. Together, we’ll explore meditation as more than a moment of relaxation, but as a practice that can support the way we think, feel, and navigate everyday life.
Connect with Sachin: @nycsachin

NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY
Whether you’re completely new to meditation or looking to deepen your existing practice, this experience welcomes you exactly where you are.
You don’t need a perfectly quiet mind, an elaborate routine, or hours of free time to begin.
Just the willingness to be present.
The greatest benefit of meditation is what you carry into the rest of your life.
A little more patience. A little less reactivity. A greater awareness of yourself.
Because learning to care for your mind is just as important as learning to care for your body.

Discover the Details. Deepen Your Understanding. Transform the Way You Move and Teach.
Join us at Body & Mind Pilates Training Studio as we welcome Cécile Elias for a special weekend dedicated to the depth, intelligence, and intention behind the Classical Pilates method.
Through thoughtful exploration of breath, spinal mobility, apparatus work, and the role of the arms throughout the Mat repertoire, Cécile invites participants to look beyond simply performing an exercise and begin understanding what makes it truly effective.
Designed for Pilates instructors, teachers in training, and dedicated practitioners, this experience offers an opportunity to revisit familiar exercises with a fresh perspective, strengthen your understanding of the classical system, and discover meaningful connections between movement, breath, and control.

SUNDAY’S EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS
WORKSHOP I: OPEN YOUR HEART
SUNDAY, February 7 | 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
In Open Your Heart, Cécile takes us deeper into the relationship between breath, spinal mobility, and the organization of the upper body.
With a particular emphasis on creating space throughout the thoracic spine, this workshop explores how intentional breathing and carefully selected apparatus exercises can influence the way we move, organize, and support the body.
Participants will explore:
The Power of Breath: Discover breathing techniques and the implementation of the Breath-e-ciser, exploring how conscious breathing can influence movement and awareness throughout the Pilates system.
Opening Work on the Barrels: Explore how the Barrels can encourage thoracic extension, create space through the chest, and support greater awareness of spinal movement.
The Baby Arm Chair: Examine the relationship between the arms, shoulders, chest, and back while exploring how the apparatus helps organize and lift the upper body.
The Pedi Pole: Investigate the balance between lift, stability, and control, creating opportunities to better understand the relationship between the spine, shoulders, and upper body.
Applying the Work to the Repertoire: Connect these discoveries to familiar exercises, including Second Stomach Massage, Short Box Straight, and Short Box Twist.
WORKSHOP II: INTENTIONAL ARMS ON THE MAT
Understanding the Role of the Arms Throughout the Classical Mat Repertoire
SUNDAY, February 7 | 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM
In Intentional Arms on the Mat, Cécile invites participants to take a deeper look at the purpose of the arms throughout the Mat repertoire and how their actions influence the body as a whole.
This workshop explores not only what the arms are doing, but why their participation matters.
What we’ll explore:
The intention behind arm placement and movement throughout the Classical Mat repertoire.
How the arms contribute to organization, stability, coordination, and control.
Understanding the relationship between the arms, shoulder girdle, trunk, and spine.
Recognizing when the arms are actively supporting an exercise rather than simply moving through it.
How to facilitate the necessary actions of the arms with or without additional support from the studio apparatus and classical system.
Developing greater awareness of the details that can influence the execution and experience of familiar Mat exercises.
