In
this drop in Open Floor class, through movement, all kinds of music,
good company and a good map, time and again we find ways to connect to
ourselves and each other – even online. I’m so curious about the
marrying of the collective web we tap into on Zoom/ in cyber space.
How much of our Soul and Spirit can we support in each other and in ourselves for deep connection both inner and outer?
A Dance for Peace among Peoples and
Peace with the Earth.
This community ritual—created by Anna Halprin in 1980—is a participatory dance in the spirit of the powerful traditional rituals that brought communities together for a vital purpose, such as calling for rain or a successful harvest. Its underlying purpose is to advance Peace among People and Peace with the Earth. Additionally, each Planetary Dance has a theme that addresses the moment. The dance itself involves a simple run or walk, so people of varying ages and abilities can participate. Anna said, “When enough people move together in a common pulse with a common purpose an amazing force takes over—a power that can renew, inspire, teach, create and heal.”
What do you call that feeling you have when something exciting is on the horizon? How would you describe your internal state on the eve of a big adventure? How can you really prepare for the unknown?
I’m not sure if the word anticipation is actually a feeling or not, but it somehow describes the state of mind. Excitement? Eagerness? Apprehension?
There are few things in life more comforting than a good solid routine. There are also few things more important than breaking it once in a while!
Throughout this retreat, we will invite you to connect with the natural world around you, to feel the earth beneath your feet, and to move from a place of deep grounding and rootedness.
