🕯️Welcome to 𝐑𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 - 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐂𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡🕯️🙏
A new Ritual is beginning for Ritual Dance! 🥳
From here on, there will be a Bi-Weekly 'Service'.
We will give prayer the way we have learned to in Ritual Dance, by acknowledging each other with a Nameste, and dancing! 🙏
This will be a celebration with praise, gospel, and lifting ourselves & each other up (literally???) to enriched states of being. ✨
(And much more)
We are creating our own version of church.
We are growing together as a tribe.
We are dancing as gods.

Take a moment.

Ritual Dance is a dance experience where we come together in silence. From the silence we feel into ourselves, make eye contact with another dancer, show ourselves & recognize the other. The music is the invitation to go into spontaneous, free dance.
The concept of Ritual Dance is inspired by Ecstatic Dance and Ritual Play. As we only use body language & sound, we leave words behind. We dance barefoot, only drink water and let ourselves be carried away by the natural flow. There is a demarcated space (the field) and demarcated time (the music), in which we step into the unknown, to authentically follow our impulses in tune with the other.
