This is the JourneyDance™. Movement as Spiritual Practice

Saturday October 18 at 8pm following Light a Candle for Health at 7pm

Dance to fiery rhythmic beats. Rise and fall in waves of melodic passionate pulsation. Dive into your ocean of emotion. Create from your deepest prayerful tones. Express your funky weird desires to let go. Inspire your heart to lead you and share its secrets. Feel your sensual aliveness and your true divinity, as you explore leading and bring JourneyDance™ into your life.

JourneyDance™ is a playful and intuitive method of using movement to discover and celebrate our inner strengths. We are all dancers and we can cleanse our bodies and minds with sweat and breath, laughter and prayer. We discover the anatomy of the soul. We feel our power and aliveness. We learn to love ourselves. We find balance and blessings. We become bright, shining, radiant.

Impulsed by music, using elements of theater, visualization, vocalization, guided sequences, and improvisational movement, we awaken our imaginations. We embark on a journey to fully express ourselves as soul. At the journey's end we return home, embodied and whole.
