Expanding from our regular Ecstatic Dance Fridays, Plein Soleil offers a broad range of classes, workshops and events to open up to new modes of movement, deepen understanding, and explore possibilities for self expression.
Wednesday April 23rd ∞ Ritual Trance Dance ∞ Marianne
Ritual Trance Dance is a unique blend of body movement, healing sounds, dynamic percussive rhythms, transformational breathing techniques and the innovative use of a blindfold - together stimulating a 'trance' state that promotes spiritual awakenings, mental clarity, physical stamina and emotional well-being. Trance Dance takes participants on an 'inner journey' not limited to our normal perceptions of space/time. Ritual trance journeys have been a vital part of shamanic and eastern dance cultures for thousands of years.
