KIA ORA, I AM SARSHA

Sarsha Marie Hope — Founder of Somatic Dance International & The Temple of Living Codes

Sarsha is the visionary founder of Somatic Dance International — a pioneering global training program launched in 2019 that integrates somatic facilitation, ritual, DJing, and eco-somatics into potent, trauma-informed dance containers. Through this work, she trains leading-edge facilitators and DJs who carry the medicine of embodied movement worldwide.

She is also the founder and transmitter of The Temple of Living Codes — an online and in-person sanctuary dedicated to embodying and reclaiming ancient feminine wisdom through ritual, dance, Goddess study, and initiatory immersion. This sacred temple invites women to step into their deepest power, reclaim lost rites of passage, and activate their fullest expression through the feminine current.

Rooted in over 25 years of facilitation experience and 40 years of embodied movement, Sarsha is a magnetic permission-giver, a thoughtful provocateur, and a dance mystic who holds space for transformation with fierce love, clarity, and grounded grace. Her lifelong devotion to the intelligence of the body fuels her international trainings, retreats, and offerings — igniting embodiment spaces where souls awaken, bodies remember, and radiant lives unfold.

There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the ground; there are a thousand ways to go home again.”
