Careers in Motion - Planetary Medicine - Gypsie nation} Spreading seeds of ritual for our times
A warm -hearted and lively man known as Poki is the visionary and founder of Gypsie Nation, an organization that creates accessible dance rituals for individual and planetary prayer. Over the years, working as a commercial fisherman, business owner, and corporate trainer, Poki began to bring his love for free-form dance and his spiritual apprenticeships to the forefront of his life. In 2001, following the sudden loss of both his partner and his mother, Poki turned to his dance and spiritual training, creating sacred dance rituals for himself. Their effects were so profound that he began to organize community dances on the Big Island of Hawaii, where he was living.
The intention of Poki’s first dance, held in the mountain town of Waimea in 2003, was to ignite a global culture that would help mend the rifts between nations. From January 2004 to May 2005, Gypsie Nation offered over 180 dance rituals in five communities around the Big Island. The fast-growing contingent of Gypsie Nation volunteer ambassadors now holds weekly dances in Washington, New Mexico, and Colorado.
“A vision is not somebody’s, it is the Earth dreaming,” Poki stated. “We are all tapped into these rising energies that she wants us to connect with and bring into form.”
