Dive with us into the deep waters of conscious ecstatic dance to access the wisdom and power in the body..
** BOOK EARLY AND SAVE £5 **
We gather together on an open floor space, where our bodies move freely without judgment or concern for the “grace” or beauty of the dance, a place where we can fully be ourselves without apology through a moving body prayer, cultivating acceptance and compassion of the beautiful and tragic human condition
Our hall is dimly lit without specific observers or verbal conversation. Suggestions and invitations are given through a microphone by the facilitator in a space that is held enough to feel safe and yet open enough to encourage creative freedom of expression. Newcomers are always welcome. There is much evidence to suggest that creative movement and dance supports a happy, healthy and fulfilled life.
When: Saturday 8th June
** Bring: water, blanket
** Wear: comfy layers
** Cost: book your place before 4th June and pay earlybird price of just £10 … otherwise £15 after and on the door.
** Location: The Bridge Family Centre in Le Geyt Road
** Time: 7pm to 9pm.
Please arrive 10 minutes early to begin on time together.
The evening is facilitated by Maria Barnicoat who started holding regular conscious dance classes back in 2008 (‘bare foot ecstatic dance’ and later ‘soul movement’) after immersing in shamanic dance practices that supported and deepened her personal growth and spiritual journey. She is influenced strongly by 5Rhythms, Movement Medicine, Soul Motion, Buddhism, Nature and Mysticism with a passion for loving our planet, staying grateful and overthrowing the patriarchy.
“Dance, and make joyous the love around you. Dance, and your veils which hide the Light shall swirl in a heap at your feet.”— Rumi
