Episode 9: Martial Arts & Mysticism
In this podcast episode, Kaye speaks with Imee Dalton, a teacher of Kali, a Filipino martial art. Imee shares her spiritual journey, emphasizing her connection to her ancestors and the evolution of her practice to include a spiritual dimension. She reflects on her transition from a Christian worship leader to embracing her Filipino heritage and the spiritual aspects of Kali. The discussion explores themes of personal growth, ancestral connections, and the importance of acknowledging both the light and dark aspects of history. Imee's story highlights the empowerment and healing that can come from personal integration of spirituality into a martial arts practice.
Imee (she/her) is the owner and creator of The Mayari Moon. Her offerings are inspired by Mayari - Philippine (Tagalog + Pampangan) goddess of the moon, combat + revolution - as she battled her brother with Kali sticks, for equal rule of the sky. She takes a decolonized, spiritual approach to Kali, with a focus on balancing out the solar energy of combat with the lunar energy of intuition and ritual.
She is a Kali practitioner and spiritual practitioner, with maternal + paternal roots in the Visayan region of the Philippines. She is a mother of two, and with her significant other, she currently resides on the lands of the Shawnee, Miami, Wyandotte, Delaware, and the mound builders that are the Hopewell and the Adena currently known as Ohio.
