“I feel that the essence of dance is the expression of man - the landscape of his soul. I hope that every dance I do reveals something of myself or some wonderful thing a human can be.”
the dance
the dance experience aka class will be a 50/50 : step design / free movement class
using the universal laws of order/chaos - yin/yang that ultimately need each other to create balance
this holistic approach to exercising will include and infuse an exhilarating collective dance workout, free spirit mindful movement, yoga principals, breathing techniques, kundalini yoga, yoga inspired stretches and moments of meditation.
we will be integrating dance movements from indigenous tribes and various cultures around the world
the music
the music will be performed by live dj most of the time, carefully hand selected and curated by co-creator and creative director Dj Sava
our music selections embrace this postmodern, neo-tribal, bohemian, electronic era we have entered and the global village we are all a part of ( as seen in many art & spiritual festivals around the globe, Burning Man, Skorpios Mykonos and Tulum Mexico ).
we carefully harvest our eclectic songs and conscious artists from around the world while remaining avant garde, exploring different cultural soundscapes and nurturing the idea of mindful music that raises vibrations and consciousness
the spirit
it isn’t a coincidence that indigenous tribes all over the world in ancient times regarded dance as one of the most sacred rituals and performed them daily
spirit was and is the conduit that facilitates the connection between the human and the divine
dance was also used to nurture the connection and unity within a tribe, community or village, providing a sense of family, unity and oneness
as our world evolves and diversity becomes more prevalent, dancing and music have also intertwined and infused to align with this concept of a one world, one love, 1tribe
the science
in quantum mechanics we’ve learned that everything is energy and everything is connected, and that chaos and order must work together to bring forth harmony, something ancient indigenous people knew many thousands of years ago
this is where science and spirit meet
this is why we are excited to present this new holistic approach to dance fitness, music & wellbeing
