bring the life of the dance into the dance of your life

Subtitled 'bring the life of the dance into the dance of your life', this book is the result of many years of research and teaching across a number of traditions. It is a meditation practice rooted in traditions of ecstatic dance, and is promoted as 'suitable for anybody in a body.' It is certainly true that movement and dance can reach new parts of our being. The structure of the book includes the dance of creation, the journey of empowerment, the journey of responsibility and living the dream. Within this are the four elements and what they call the nine gateways as a journey to the soul and a means of embodying your essential self. There are many practical exercises which form part of the workshops put on by the authors. The intent of the book can be summed up with the words of a Colombian Shaman: 'the only really important thing is that you can look yourself straight in the eye and know that you have lived from your truth and integrity. Have faith in your truth. Follow it with love.'
