POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
Every time we offer a hesitant "yes" when our soul is screaming "no," 

we fracture the sacred contract we have with ourselves. We trade our truth for comfort. We dilute our fire to keep others warm. To be liked.

โ€‹In the Layer of Power we use he language of Fire with intention & direction. Fire either burns or it doesn't and always requires a 100% output.
โ€‹
โ€‹Where in your life have you allowed shame to cage your voice? 
Where have you softened your edges just to be liked?

โ€‹When we embody the clear, uncompromising movement of the โ€œNo,โ€ the cage dissolves. Shame loses its grip the moment clarity strikes. To speak the language of fire is not violentโ€”it is radical self-devotion. It is the act of stepping fully into your sovereignty and honoring the promise to never betray yourself and being honest to others and yourself with direction.

โ€‹Burn away the polite hesitation. Reclaim the direction of your power.

โ€‹Society indoctrinates us all with its own versions of "normal." 

We are taught that boys shouldn't cry and that girls must always be sweet. But when we are forbidden from expressing the full spectrum of our feelings, how do we avoid drowning in the very waters we suppress, deny, and disown?

โ€‹When we build dams instead of releasing the pressure, where does all that water go?

โ€‹In the AMM (Amenti MoveMeant Method), the Layer of Sensations is deeply tied to the element of water. Water connects us to our feelings, our sexuality, and our emotional fluidity. It empowers us to feel deeply without being swept away by our emotions, keeping us from becoming rigid or numb. Emotion is simply energy in motionโ€”and it needs space to flow. 

This specific exercise is designed to break the dam and unlock stuck emotions trapped within the body.

Meet Ruben "Rugadhara" Lapong. ๐ŸŒโœจ

โ€‹His name, Rugadhara, is a powerful fusion of his first name and the Muladhara (Root Chakra)โ€”a perfect reflection of his energetic essence.

See our newly released website www.amenti.world for more โ˜ ๏ธ

โ€‹Within the Amenti MoveMeant Method (AMM), we guide you to discover which Layer flows most naturally through you, both in life and in motion. For Ruben, his natural state is the Layer of Physicalityโ€”the Element of Earth. When he moves, you witness a deeply grounded presence. He takes up space with big, expansive expressions, from rooting into the floor to reaching up to the sky. Through his movement, he beautifully embodies how the Layer of Physicality anchors and connects us to the physical plane and the material world.

โ€‹Ruben brings the intense, transformative power of Krump to the Amenti ecosystem. Known in the global Krump community as Soulja Ques, he is a prominent member of the prestigious Ques (Krump Family). His background in this highly expressive and spiritual street dance allows him to guide practitioners through the release of raw, suppressed energy. He uses the disciplined explosiveness of Krump to help others deconstruct the ego, providing a stable foundation for practitioners to ground their primal nature.

Root Rhythm

Through the soil, Ruben and Kinbana navigate the dance of mutual support and trust.
Trust is a choice and is not a given, it is a conscious decision to lean into uncertainty. It requires the surrender to the risks, matched by the internal certainty that you possess the strength that you got you and each other.

First Soil.

โ€‹Before we can expand, we must root. The Layer of Physicality (Earth) builds the foundation, we need our soil to be solid for true growth. Without it, we cannot rise above the ground and stand firm in moving forward.

โ€‹When we are excessive we cling tightly to safety, trapped in rigidity and have a fear of change. When Earth is deficient, we lack grounding altogetherโ€”floating above our presence, paralyzed by the fear of rooting down and committing to a foundation.

Before the seed reaches for the sun, it must first surrender to the soil.

A very happy birthday to our brother - a one-of-a-kind soul - Ruben.
A new chapter, a new portal opens as you step into your 30s.

Your light energy and caring spirit fuel us all.
You show up in every shape and form, holding us with your heart.
Present, yet always moving - envisioning the future as we sail through the world together.

May this year bring blessings, clarity, and everything your heart is ready to move toward. ๐Ÿ’œ

โ€”

Standing on the top of a volcano, inspired by all the scenery around, there was a magical invitation to step more fully into your most authentic self - meeting those who meet your soul.

Reminding to move from our roots, in power, guided by the presence of our ancestors - who stand right behind us, in the moment, in the now.

Ruben, representing West Papua with grace, moved powerfully to the incredible sounds shared by Aga - our guide on this journey to Mount Batur. In that moment, a part of your soul was shared with us all.

The language of fire, as demonstrated during our workshop by Ruben. We donโ€™t just speak and explain through words and vocabulary but also embody the language by living it ourselves. By engaging in movement, we create portals for our participants to connect with their own moving bodies. Contractions, fast movements, core engagement.

Fire is the element of transformation and destruction, making space for new beginnings. It is a vital step in the process of alchemizing our energies. Fire is often misunderstood because of its destructive qualities, but it is a vital concept that helps us gain clarity of mind and understand our individuality and the importance of our uniqueness within a collective.
