Women's Ritual Dance Workshop-November 21st

[Guest guest]

Hello,Here is another reminder about the upcoming Women's Ritual Dance Workshop on November 21st. As this is the time of year for slowing down and turning inward, we will be focusing on building inner fire and nurturance.I hope to be dancing with you soon. Warm wishes,NadaWomen'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.
