On 1.11, we invite you into a continuum of resolutions.
Doors open at 1 PM, when the sun crosses the midday sky.
You enter The Ellis, an open, spacious sanctuary.
Winter light pours through stained glass.
Circles. Cycles. Spirals. Fractals.
Breath moves slowly through the body.
We open gently with Yuj guiding a Qi-Gong practice, because the body knows what the mind does not,
and winter asks us to listen first.
Our practice warms up into a moving circle—
a winter ritual shaped through movement and live looping with Iris, El Jeffre and Hiplash.
Hybrid Movement Company inspires us through breath-taking shapes, and our bodies begin to unwind on the dance floor.
Soon, there is soup, and waffles. Local makers. Warmth shared at a long table. The hearth opens for connection, conversation, convergence.
Music follows to gather us and invite our full expression.
A dance journey with SPASIBA, founder of Resonance— weaving a sonic spell to ignite our inner fire.
The kind of rhythm that reminds you that you have feet, and a spine, and time.
As the day tilts toward night, Camila Celin and Ehren Hanson offer a live performance of The Fools Journey.
This is live, ancient music that holds attention the way a river does—patient, exact, alive.
We close with sound that asks nothing more of you.
A gong bath. Early darkness.
The body settling into what it has been given.
This gathering is designed as a single gesture, from first breath to final tone. Nothing rushed.
If winter is our teacher, we are her students.
Resonance Returns on 1.11 — join us in the breath, the dance, the sound 🕊️

ABOUT THE CREATORS
SPASIBA / Founder of Resonance Gathering
Katya (she/her) is a Post-Soviet Jewish-Ukrainian-Russian artist, facilitator, singer, DJ, entrepreneur, healer, musician, and poet. Katya creates resonant portals where connection thrives. She is the Head of Growth at Akera, a co-founder of Inheritance Project and Rebis, an immersive experience collective. Katya is a resident of Collective BAE - a NYC based impact agency amplifying cross-cultural connection, collaboration, co-creation and wellness for ALL. She is deeply passionate about somatic work and believes that freedom begins in the body. As DJ SPASIBA, her sound reflects her third-culture-kid experiences interweaving jungle beats, European house, deep techno and melodic drive.
IRIS / Co-Producer
Iris is a New York based live loop artist, vocalist, soundscape designer and mythopoetic bard. Combining soulful vocals, production + live looping to create hypnotic, dream-like sound scapes, ranging from mediations to beat centric dance music. Deeply influenced by her time spent in nature, Iris has a diverse background in wilderness skills, sound healing, painting, writing and mysticism; coloring her sets with a confluence of natural textures, world instruments, sounds of space, vocal harmonies and rhythmic prose. She believes music is a force of story telling, of magic, alchemy, togetherness + evolution.
ELJEFFRE
ElJeffre is a multi-versed musician manifesting music, soundscapes, journeys and visions. He shares his artistry both in the wildly expressive NYC nightlife scene as well as in gatherings where the focus is more oriented towards healing and integration. Despite these areas being seemingly opposed, he brings a common energy of ingenuity, artistry and connection to every circumstance - continuously finding that the shadow work at night informs the light work during the day.
HYBRID MOVEMENT COMPANY
Hybrid Movement Company began as a conversation in movement between artists from many backgrounds: contemporary ballet, Contemporary Circus, martial arts, bboying, visual arts, music and animation. We developed a collaborative method which provides skilled artists with an opportunity to recognize and reframe themselves in each other and in space.
HIPLASH
New York base hula-hoop performance artist for 10 years, blending intuitive flow with music as the anchoring pulse, inspired by the patterns and symmetry of sacred geometry. Grounding into the body for creativity and expression. Hooping is medicine: play, meditation, embodiment, and fluid self-expression. Performing is communion — a ritual of presence, a translation of feeling into form, a portal for creativity, and an alchemy of emotion into art. Let’s collide and create within the power of the circle
Fool's Journey
The Fools Journey is a ritual-performance by Camila Celin and Ehren Hanson that merges tarot, music, and improvisation. Each show is a unique, audience-led experience. Part oracle, part concert, part ceremony—it's a mirror for the moment and a portal to something beyond. It is a collective oracle where the tarot deck guides the show and the audience becomes part of the unfolding story. Drawing from Indian classical music, flamenco, sarod, ambient textures, spoken word, and groove-based improvisation, each performance becomes a living, breathing reading.
YUJ
Yuj is a somatic alchemist and multidisciplinary artist dedicated to creating transformative experiences through sound, movement, and storytelling. Blending music, science, and spirituality, he crafts immersive workshops and performances that guide participants into states of embodiment, authenticity, and transcendence.
