Vision:  Bringing together a collective of dancers, movers, and players

with a love for dance, movement, connection and devotion. 

We will explore, expand, be curious to each form and no form

 what it has to offer to express through the body.

 

Bring together years of collective dance experience from around the world. Each facilitator offers their preferred form of dance whilst opening to all forms for expression of each person’s unique spirit and movement.

We move with Yoga, Salsa, Zouk, Fusion, Contact improvisation, Freedance (ecstatic), etc.  Fusing form for the love and curiosity of movement.  When each form loosens the edges of what is, softening the form without losing it, allows limitless creative movement to unfold in the body

 

Exploring the elements and our relationship to nature and the connection to all.  Opens the dance partners to be more than the human body.  Connecting and dancing with space, fire, water, air and earth.  Bringing consciousness to human touch, it beauty, power and healing that can be opened with touch.

 

When we dance we are spirit expressing joy in the body

..we become one with joy.

Are you curious?

Do you like blending different dances form for the fun of movement.

Do you like connection and touch for the beauty and joy of dance

Do you like combining ritual, devotion and ceremony into your daily practice of dance.

 

Here is the retreat for you..
