Northern Michigan Ecstatic Dance
Sunday, January 5 10:00-12:00 Ecstatic dance is like a meditation for the body. We let go of our minds and drop into the body, to be with whatever is happening for us at the time. Movement can help us access, express, release, and celebrate what is, and what might be hard to notice otherwise. The majority of the time is for free-form movement Any form of dancing or movement is allowed as long as it is safe for everyone. All people of all sizes, types, and ages welcome. There is no photography or recording of any kind. This is a drug and alcohol free space. Mills Community House wants everyone to have access to dance, so this is a pay what you will event; it is free to you if you need it. Donations support the incredible Mills Community House and help Jeanie buy gas and lunch., and cover expenses of the dance. Jeanie Williams has been hosting ecstatic dance in Northern Michigan since 2016. |
