Little bits of information for interest sake
I was invited to a” Yoga Trance Dance” recently.Of course , I was very excited to go. Infusing my personal practice and my classes with elements of this moving meditation , this was a chance for me to celebrate with other like minded individuals.
“Yoga Trance Dance” was developed by Shiva Rea. It is a meeting of two great rivers, yoga and dance.
The special thing about this evening was that my fourteen year old niece accompanied me. When we were asked to set our intentions (verbally) for the class, she answered confidently “I like to learn new things and my auntie invited me”. I had a huge internal smile.. WOW ! I thought, this young lady is going to be a women of presence and change in this world. For those of you that know her understand what I’m saying.
Did we have fun! The instructor lead us in this celebration of intuition and awakened the rasa (our inner nectar).The music was loud, asana’s fluid. We bent, shaked and twirled as yoga and dance were blended into a wild, challenging and entertaining practice.
This evening of ecstatic bliss confirmed to me that yoga and dance are natural. The knowledge for us to understand that being alive is creative, joyful and loving and is inherent in us no matter if we are 42 years old or 14 years old.!
