Every fall the leaves teach us incredible soul medicine– how to just let go.  They burst into brilliant shades of color and then, they fall to the ground, becoming compost for new life.  They show us, again and again, that death can be glorious.  That letting go can be gentle, and so very beautiful.  

Why is it so much harder for humans?  What would happen if we could be like the leaves, and just let go?  To trust our bodies, our beings, this earth and this life to hold us, through it all?  

In this Fall Equinox Soul Dance series we’ll engage this deep medicine of the season.  We’ll set intentions and give voice to our deepest prayers of letting go– and we’ll dance our way into the organic release.  We’ll let our breath, our bones, our cells and our souls show us, re-member us into the ancient rhythms of life– to let go, to lie fallow, and to be reborn again.  Join us!  

What is Soul Dance? 

Soul Dance is the way we were made to move-- freely, joyfully, wondrously, as ourselves, in ourselves, in community.  It's exactly what it needs to be for you-- stretchy and big, contained and close, leaping and loud, tender and true.  It can be weird and often makes no sense-- following the wisdom of the body in the dance brings us to a place where words aren't necessary or needed, where we get to just BE and FREE all the movements that live inside of us, beyond and bigger than any words.  We shed what we no longer need to carry naturally, and we embody the freedom of ecstasy, our birthright as human BEings.  Moving this way has a profound healing effect on the body wHoly being-- connecting us to ourselves, and to one another in authentic presence.  

What will happen in this series?  

Every session, we open and close in circle to connect, open space and set intentions.  Then we move gently through the Evolve Ecstatic Dance movement arc– you’ll be guided through music and gentle facilitation every step of the way.  We’ll close together at the end of class.  Each week we’ll dive into different aspects of the Evolve Arc, but you can come to one class or two, and still get a lot from it.  Engaging the entire series undoubtedly has the greatest benefit, as dancing consistently is its own unique alchemy.  Feel free to explore what works for you– the whole series, a class, or more!
