DANCE

Dancing awakens us and fills us with life. By fully immersing ourselves in the dance, we leave the mind behind and find stillness within the movement. During the dance, we can experience unity. You are carried, as it were, by the music and your own dance. Surrendering to the dance also brings you into contact with the unchanging and immovable within yourself; your essence. This awakened energy is carried inward, allowing you to dwell more deeply in Being. Here, the dance becomes meditation.

DANCE EVENINGS AND MORNINGS

A wonderful moment in the week to move your body, open your heart, and clear your mind. Themes and guidance support and inspire your dance, helping it deepen. We begin with awareness through moving the body, build the dance, and end in stillness.
