CHAKRADANCE
CHAKRADANCE™ – UNLEASH YOUR SPIRIT WITH THE SISTER OF YOGA
CHAKRADANCE™ is a dynamic form of dance which aids in relieving and balancing the stresses of modern day living. Offering similar benefits to yoga, CHAKRADANCE™ increases your awareness of the connection between your body and soul and leaves you with a feeling of inner peace and serenity.
“CHAKRADANCE™ draws on a fusion of philosophies and musical styles, focusing solely on personal experience, and balancing individual chakras – the energy centres which are the gateways to integrating mind, body and spirit,” says founder, Natalie Southgate.
“Through dance we are able to free up our natural energy flows and harmonise our chakras, thereby strengthening our state of health and well-being. Participants are taken on a dynamic dance journey through their own energy centres.”
No dance experience or prior knowledge of the chakras is necessary. Guided by music resonating to each of the seven chakras, CHAKRADANCE™ participants are taken on a spiritual dance journey.
The practice of Chakradance™ encourages freedom of expression through spontaneous dance movement to music that has been specially created to resonate with each of the seven major chakras (energy centers in your subtle energetic body). As individuals dance to the frequency of each chakra, different issues surface allowing the opportunity to explore the issues and experience the emotional charge related to the issues.
There are a lot of benefits – improves your physical health, releases endorphins and improves your mood, and provides you freedom of expression. One of the main benefits is that it is a process of self discovery because we are working directly with the chakras. We explore intimacy, sexuality, intuition, creativity. It is a practice for inner awareness that is stress-free, you can have fun while you are doing it, it’s nonanalytical – it’s exploration through the body.
These experiences can then be integrated into our everyday lives. Participants leave reality behind – surrendering to the music and dancing from the inside out – ultimately freeing our natural energy flows and feeling more alive!
After the dance, you will create your own piece of mandala art, a Jungian psychology practice, to further integrate the experience. This is followed by some time for group sharing and closing of the circle with meditation.
