Kids: they dance before they learn there is anything that isn't music. ~William Stafford

We ought to dance with rapture that we might be alive... and part of the living, incarnate cosmos. ~D.H. Lawrence

I don't want people who want to dance, I want people who have to dance. ~George Balanchine

It's our Birthday!

It's our Birthday!
Here's our original flyer from one year ago. On Sunday, March 29, come celebrate us being one year old. I hear cake is involved.
"Each week I am surprised by the gift that Ecstatic Dance gives to me. I come just wanting to dance. But as we share our intentions with the group, I gain clarity into what truly matters to me and what I really need. Then, as the music starts and my body is moved by all of the intentions and energy inside of myself and the room, the magic starts. Effortlessly, insights about confusing questions and life challenges come to me, power and energy recharge, determination and confidence grow, and peace and joy flow. Suddenly life seems like nothing but an effortless dance overflowing with pumping energy and abounding happiness-a gift I am nothing but thankful to take part in." - Colleen
There is this exquisite moment where I just let go. Maybe I was thinking about my busy day or I was nervous that people would be watching me, but then something magical happens, and the music takes me up and out of my thoughts, up and out of my head, and deep down into my body. I can't think and I don't want to. I just dance; all my muscles awake and alive and moving in single purpose to express some deep yearning in my soul. -Tanya
