DANCE AWAKE!


Dance under the moon 
conjures the goddess
within awakening your
wild.
_Mia Wild

What could the dance ever awaken?

For Ram Dass, the dance awakens us to the realisation that we are not separate being, instead we are part of the totality. Through the dance, for him, “we find our way home.” This is certainly the experience we have when we dance our transcendent dances, especially round the fire where we connect with nature and embody our connectedness.


Dance not only awakens our transcendent nature but also serves as a mirror to our everyday reality. We embody our identity which translates into movement patterns that show up in our dance. Is this who I truly am, we can ask? Or am I dancing like a puppet on a string, pulled by life external without even noticing?


We become conscious in our dance and when we delve deep into our heart we are able to connect with our authenticity – to connect with who we truly are. Each one of us has a different dance on this earth. Some are men, some are women. Some are visionaries some are implementers. Some are teachers and some magicians. Through the dance it is possible to feel into our purpose and our role. And then we awaken this connect to self and express our uniqueness in the world for all to celebrate.

_Christos Daskalakos
