GUIDELINES FOR THE DANCE: Arrive on time and stay for entire event- Dancing is talk-free Fire is for dancers only Respect sacred space and others’ space WHAT IS “ECSTATIC DANCE”? Ecstatic Dance is a style of movement that invites you to dance freely, openly, honestly – within your entire being – and in sacred ways with others. It is normally done with the whole group starting together, ending together and sharing, and staying for the entire dance. You are invited to sit in silence, run around like a wild banshee, shake and gyrate, dance alone or dance with others. It is always meant to be a sacred personal journey, taking you through a variety of sounds and rhythms, emotions and physical movements that YOU CREATE! RITUAL will be led by Marta Cerejo and will be her own magical creation, a Full Moon Ritual for the Community. (((Heather is taking a break to heal and rest but will return the following Saturday for Priestess Apprentice.)))
