Private & Group Lessons and Wellness Sessions at the Great Rhythm Revival
Private & Small Group Sessions
For participants who would like more personalized attention, some Great Rhythm Revival instructors offer a limited number of private or small group sessions during the weekend.
These sessions are a chance to go deeper, ask specific questions, receive one-on-one guidance, or enjoy a more customized experience beyond the larger group workshops.
Availability, pricing, and scheduling are handled directly with each instructor. Payment should be made directly to the instructor by cash or check.
If you are interested in booking a private or small group session, we recommend connecting with the instructor on the first day of the retreat — or ahead of time, when possible — as each instructor’s schedule only allows for a small number of these appointments.
Please note that not all instructors offer private sessions.

Sandra Sabene: Soul Mapping: Sacred Breath & Visual Release Cost: $25 | Duration: 1 Hour | Limited Capacity (Pre-registration required) Schedule: Saturday Morning, 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM at the Water’s Edge near the pond
This session is for anyone looking to go deeper with their creative self-care practice. This small-group morning session offers a quiet, supportive space for intuitive and energetic expansion. We begin by using sacred
breathing practices and sound vibration to help you move past overthinking. We gently bring whatever energy or feelings are held in the body up to the surface. From there, we move directly into the creative process, using watercolor, color self-expression, inspiring music, and intuitive writing. This visual manifestation acts as your release, moving that energy out onto paper to inspire a deeper sense of inner clarity and release.
What to bring: Please bring a journal, a pen, and a yoga mat or blanket to sit on. All art supplies are included. Spaces are limited—reserve your spot ahead of time.
Who this session is for: Those processing grief, moving through sadness, feeling stuck, seeking intuitive connection, or looking to clear their energy centers.

Bodywork, Cellular Expansion and Healing, and Transformational Reiki
Are you stressed, feel ‘stuck’ in a life situation, or simply need to relax? A relaxing energy work session may be able to help to feel relaxed and balanced again. Cellular Expansion and HealingTM is a form of hands-on energy work that supports the resolution of constrictions and illness at the cellular level. The release of constrictions allows for physical, emotional, and mental healing at the root cause and supports living a life of happiness, aliveness, and overall well-being. Cellular Expansion and Healing can help you to:
* Facilitate balance and health (mental, emotional or physical).
* Create a project, job, or partnership from an expanded state of connection.
* Explore mind/body connection and how it can impact their lives.
* Move from a feeling of being stuck to aligned purpose.
* Augment your daily life with wellness and with energy.
* Accelerate your spiritual development.
Transformational Reiki
Transformational Reiki is a blending of Japanese and Native American Energies. Using the unique vibrations of this pairing, coupled with the vibrations of the drum, the practitioner opens up a gateway for a more palpable, whole body experience for each client during a Reiki session.
The combination of the Spiritual energies of the Eastern tradition, and the earth-centered energies of the West, help to facilitate a connection within clients that makes it possible for their awareness of their oneness with the Universe to expand and to manifest in all aspects of their lives.
JENNIFER GUYTON is a certified Cellular Expansion and HealingTM (CE) practitioner, Usui Tibetan Reiki Master, Transformational Reiki Practitioner, and 200-hour Yoga Teacher. She has studied under many local healers and teachers including Deb Schnitta (CE); Bonnie Hassan (Reiki, Transformational Reiki); and Joanne andenHengel (Yoga). She is currently studying massage therapy at the Pittsburgh School of Massage Therapy and anticipates graduating in December 2014. She also holds a Masters of Science in Environmental Science and Management from Duquesne University and currently works as an environmental consultant. As an energy work practitioner, she would like to welcome you to experience the healing and loving energy of Cellular Expansion and HealingTM or Transformational Reiki and to start your journey to health and wellness.

Maureen Lauer-Gatta: Private Yoga Lessons
I am happy to offer private yoga sessions (small group or individual) half hour or hour longs. Half hour might be great for folks who just want to get their stretch on! Individual instruction is the way yoga was originally taught.
