Transcendence and self expression through

Dancing.

 

The conclusions of modern Quantum Physics indicate that the entire created Universe is made and consists of wave patterns.  As the ancient mystics and indigenous healers have always said, sound and light (which are frequencies) are the underlying principals of which all things are made and connected to each other.  These have been called the cosmic vibratory creative force, the voice of God, and in India it is referred to as AUM. One could say the sum total of all sound is the heartbeat of creation. 

 

So, movement and vibration are essential in our lives.  It is movement and sound, or vibratory waves, that form our mental, emotional and physical being.  Intuitive improvisational dance, when rooted in mindfulness, can be a direct portal into a state that is more integrated and balanced.  Anyone who experiences this will feel it reflected from within ~ like an ecstatic, radiant full body smile that emanates from the core and directly changes who you are and your entire life situation! 

 

People throughout the world and all through time have discovered and honed in on this truth as can be seen from traditions such as the ecstatic dance of the Shakers or Sufis, the ritual dances of indigenous tribes, hatha yoga, nada yoga, and the martial arts, to name a few.  Eventually, one learns to become totally absorbed by the dance, where subject and object merge into timelessness.  It's as though you were being danced by an intelligent source greater than you, yet not separate from you.  At this point, it is effortless and you are drawn into transcendence. You merge into each moment again and again and again... open, free and alive.
