Join in the great and intimate dance of the universe
This is the awakened dance and it is dancing us in every moment, a moment not unlike this one-
Your body as an instrument of conscious creativity and the key to embodied awakening
Dance is a universal language of the soul a hidden language that awakens and transforms permitting life to embody and move through us in a uniquely spontaneous way giving physical expressions to spiritual and emotional undercurrents: You and I are dancers in this great intimate dance of the universe, as is every creature great or small, the mountains, rivers, oceans, every grain of sand or massive galaxy; Everything, in reality, no matter how old or vast. no matter how unnoticed or small is dancing this dance is together, and although we may feel as if we are separate - finite individuals on the grand stage of life, can we truly say there are separate dancers in this all-encompassing dance? endless dances are going on in this very moment within each dancer, every cell, each bond, and each reactivity just dancing with each other, dancing within dancing;
Grandmother Oya and husband Michael, offer a nurturing and transformational residential experience away from the stress and strain of the fast paced mobile world: : an open invitation to ecstatic dancers (no dance experience required) to withdraw from the pressure of modern day living.
Red Earth provides an oasis of harmony and tranquility, and celebrates the universal language of Ecstatic movement and dance as our metaphor and medium for self-exploration, self-inquiry, and awakening;
