On Sunday, November 15, the Miami Beach Botanical Garden transforms into an open landscape of participatory installations—a living laboratory of the senses.

Move freely through interactive stations across the garden: weave, touch, smell, listen, and contribute to an evolving collective creation.

The Experience

• Participatory Installations: Engage with natural fibers, botanical scents, tactile native elements, and acoustic soundscapes.

• Collective Making: Contribute your individual gestures of writing, weaving, and reflection into shared works that evolve in real time.

• Guest Artists: Featuring creative collaborations with guest artists Anna Biondo and Sarah Laing.

The Vision

Created by neuroscientist and artist Karina Del Punta, Ph.D., Nature In Community draws from insights in environmental neuroscience and relational ecology. The work explores what it means to meet the natural world in active reciprocity—rediscovering ourselves not just as visitors or consumers, but as vital participants woven into the fabric of the living landscape.

Through the intentional orchestration of materials, colors, sounds, and scents, the experience invites a state of soft fascination—a restorative mode of attention that calms the nervous system while heightening relational and creative presence. Each individual reflection shared throughout the afternoon weaves into a tangible representation of community and ecological interdependence.

Discover what takes shape when we create together.

A breathwork & sound journey into the alchemical power of embodied gratitude.

This 75-minute journey opens seated, beginning with yogic breathing practices that prepare the body and invite presence. From there, you'll move into an active, alchemizing breathwork experience done lying down, moving what feels stagnant, returning you to your essential Self, and attuning you to the wellspring of ease and joy within. The session closes with an immersive sound journey that supports integration and reestablishes inner harmony.

In this season of gratitude, rather than a practice that asks us to overlook our struggles, we expand our awareness to hold difficulty and recognize what is already supportive, already whole, already here — embodying gratitude as the alchemical emotion it truly is.

Walk away feeling lighter, more spacious, and more connected to an inner refuge.

Rooted in ancient wisdom traditions and informed by modern research.

What to Bring:

Feel free to bring a light covering and anything that helps you feel completely at ease—an extra pillow under your head, an eye cover for a deeper experience, or a mat. The more comfortable, the better.

Before You Arrive:

Doors to the Banyan Ballroom close sharply at 6:40 pm so as not to interrupt the experience. We encourage you to arrive early and take in the beauty of the garden — bring your journal or walk the grounds to ground yourself before we begin.

Expect a warm, supportive, and encouraging environment where you can build mobility, strength, balance, and mind-body awareness.

This immersive soothing sound session is designed to soothe the nervous system and support deep rest. The vibrations of sound help ease tension in the body and invite the nervous system into a more restorative state, offering moments of insight and a deeper connection to the body’s innate wisdom. The effects of this practice often continue throughout the day and sometimes into the week. Gentle breathwork and, at times, loving-kindness meditation may also be woven into these sessions.

General Admission Price: $22 | Member Price: $20

A slow, meditative vinyasa practice guided by yogic breath. This class emphasizes subtle body awareness and nervous system support, with helpful verbal cues and gentle assists offered throughout the practice. Through this inward attention, we reconnect with the body’s innate wisdom and integrate that deeper essence into the rhythm of daily life. Each session closes with a longer savasana to rest deeply and absorb the nurturing energy of the garden, supporting integration. 

“It’s not a performance, it’s an inward journey.”

About Victoria Collins:

Victoria is a Miami-based Pilates instructor with a background in education and a passion for mind-body alignment through intentional movement and breathwork. Victoria discovered mat Pilates at age 16 during a time when she was navigating her own mental health and physical wellness challenges. She immediately fell in love with the method as a powerful tool to regain control of her body and calm her mind. Years later, her sister-in-law introduced her to Pilates classes using the reformer at The Pilates Place Studios. This introduction reignited that initial spark, inspiring her to complete her Pilates teacher training at The Pilates Place Studios so she could help others experience the transformative power of the practice.

Victoria firmly believes that Pilates is for every body—regardless of age, background, or fitness level. Her classes combine classical and contemporary techniques into a challenging, full-body workout powered by the breath. Expect a warm, supportive, and encouraging environment where you can build mobility, strength, balance, and mind-body awareness.
