Women's Ritual DanceAncient Forms, Modern TimesI invite you to share in my love for traditional Balkan, Greek, Rom, Armenian, and near Eastern dances. Throughout all ages and cultures, traditional circle dances were used to honor the divine, to heal, to affirm connection to the earth and each other, to build community and celebrate rites of passages and life transitions. The danced patterns illuminate the web of these connections. It is where personal and universal healing can occur. In this workshop we will use the traditional dances as a platform for heightening awareness of body/self, self to community, self to cosmos. We will examine the dances on multiple levels to indulge in these connections. The expressive and improvisational aspects of Dance/Movement Therapy will support further exploration such as sensations, images, feelings, and stories in order to deepen and expand our experience. In these dances we can ï¬nd our deepest selves, each other, and those who have danced the dances before, as we rediscover our oneness with the universe again and again The dances are joyful, meditative, mournful, full of beauty, longing, life and celebration. come, join me.Date: Sunday, November 7th, 2010Time: 1:00-4:30pmPlace: Bridge for Dance, 2726 Broadway # 3, New York, NY 10025- between 104th & 105th - 2 blocks North of 103rd St Stop on the 1-train Fee: $60 by 10/31, $70 after Students/Seniors: $40To Register/Questions: please email Nada at mokosh@... or call at Space is LimitedAbout Nada:Nada Khodlova MA BC-DMT LCAT is a Board Certified Dance Movement Therapist and Licensed Creative Arts Therapist.
