A bit about Biodanza and who we are:

Life is revealed through movement to music.
Biodanza was "discovered" by Rolando Toro Araneda, a Chilean Medical Anthropologist, Psychologist, and artist. It was a slow, maturing discovery from the mid '50s through 2010 and continues evolving.

Rolando was always interested in connecting with the "humanity" of each and every person. He started in life as a teacher and created Art Exhibitions with the children's work in the late '50s. He created music bands with the youth and led them into nature to learn about the ocean and forests.

In the '60s he recorded in his notes many "trips" of Art students with LSD and realized that these wonderful visions had to be integrated within a reality; instead of "finding paradise " in a fantasy world, the aim was to access this wonderful state in daily life in connection with our close loved ones.

After continuous research, he created the Biodanza Theoretical Model which we still today follow in each class of Biodanza.
Biodanza is a form of community dance in the sense that "dance" represents movement as an expression of emotions.

The difference from other forms is that the Biodanza Facilitator invites the class to simple, everyday movements such as walking, breathing, resting as a group activity.

Everyone is "INVITED” to participate in their own way, in feedback with others. You are free to accept or not. You may dance with others or alone but there is always a real and happy disposition to share.

There is NO CONSUMPTION of ANY substances in Biodanza. Most of the dances respect the natural organic state of the body; for every euphoric, expressive dance there is time to rest and integrate.

Biodanza is a beautiful invitation to move to music that speaks beyond words; its effects are immediate and it aims to integrate and promote health and well being within togetherness.
We are delighted to share with you the gift of Biodanza!

About us:
We are from all walks of life—artists, singers, musicians, psychologists, therapists, writers, teachers, contractors, engineers.
We have been dancing, studying, and preparing ourselves to share Biodanza with the wider community. And now we are ready to invite you to our circle of the Dance of life!
