“Celebration of the Sun: Dancing Fire, Passion and the Warmth of our Hearts”
This will be a special day to celebrate the Summer Solstice and our connection with the power of nature. More than ever, we are aware of the influence of our environment on our everyday life so this is a perfect time to embrace the full force of our fire energy through our dance and movement. There will be an introduction to Biodanza and the four elements at the beginning. This workshop is open to people coming for the first time and those who have been to Biodanza before.
Sunday 24th August:
“Celebrating Life – The Cosmic Dance”
“Get up, oh day! The atoms are dancing; the souls, deep in ecstasy, are dancing; the vault of heaven, because of this Being, is dancing. I shall whisper in your ear where its dance is leading: All the atoms that exist in the air and in the desert – understand it well – are in love like ourselves and each one of them, happy or unlucky, is dazzled by the light of the unconditioned soul.” – Rumi
Before the word, we first know the world through movement. Dance is, therefore, a way to be in the world, the expression of the organic unity of human beings with the universe. Biodanza is an invitation to the dance that Rumi, a Sufi poet, was talking about. There will be an introduction to the theoretical basis of Biodanza before we begin the dance of the cosmos. This workshop is open to people coming for the first time and those with experience.
Both workshops are from 11am – 5pm, £35/30. At the Columcille Centre, 2 Newbattle Terrace, Morningside, EH10 4RT
