This retreat rhythmically alternates between movement and sitting/lying in silence – dance that clears the way to the center and stillness that allows the nervous system to rest and integrate the experience. Rounds of dance and stillness as a double dose of medicine for modern living – indications are mental clarity, emotional release, physical vitality…
The intention is not to force anything – we simply allow movement, stillness and silence. In return, stillness allows us immense depth, presence and spaciousness. Healing. It allows us to be just who we are and nothing more, nothing less. What a relief! Dance is the bridge, and peace with oneself is the destination.
It takes a dose of courage to face what happens when the music stops, both in the shadow and in the light. It takes courage to let the flow take us to places we cannot predict or plan – into the unknown. This retreat is that brave transition from the outer rhythm to the deepest one, the one that pulsates in silence.
