A World Motivational Movement
that will Unite and Heal the World
WHAT IS IT
Embracing our origins fuels purpose in crafting our identity sharing and spawns potent cultural contributions, honoring our Ancestors' wisdom for contemporary times and revealing our authentic expressions in our way of living within our chosen communities.
HOW WE GET THERE
The Roots MVMT is an experience which provides natural group therapy using Dianna David´s MVMT Medicina method for uniting people under the exploration of their origins in artistic collaborations, group immersive experiences or private sessions.
FOR WHO
The ROOTS MVMT is a global movement for influencers, artists, creators, seekers, immigrants and cultural custodians to discover new identities and to express the stories, dances, ceremonies and artisanship of their indigenous origins to build "Barangays", a community of families, around themselves, fostering unity, collaborations, love and appreciation.
VALUES WE CIRCLE AROUND
Founded by Dianna David with Cultural Consultation by Dr. Joye Hardiman, grounds Roots MVMT in four Filipino values:
1. Animism: Recognizing the spirit in all things, animate or inanimate.
2. Kapwa: Embracing interconnectedness, empathy, and shared identity.
3. Bayanihan: Upholding communal cooperation and solidarity.
4. Pamana: Embracing legacy, but also spiritual teachings and values passed down through generations.
Let’s uproot and uncover hidden truths to create collaborative communities for generations to come.
UPCOMING WORLD PROJECT
Join us on the launch of a lifetime journey home! Donate to our GoFundMe that supports our 30-day cultural immersion tour in the Philippines from July 20 to August 20, 2024, hosted by Dianna David and her father, Mr. Bert "Barangay" David.
Together, we'll travel, educate, tour, and celebrate with 60 Canadian dancers and parents of The Philippine Barangay Performing Arts Society, exploring indigenous communities, delivering talks, workshops, and performances.
Most importantly, help us honor Mr. Barangay's 40 years of cultural custodianship as we share the legacy he founded in Canada.
