SOLD OUT - WAITING LIST ONLY PLEASE
limited to 18 people
Timed to mark the end of the year, the winter solstice, this festive workshop calls us to reflect upon darkness, the descent of the sun, the return to the chthonic and we dance the mythical cycles of existence. We will spend time reflecting on our inner shadow, the collective shadow, embrace our demons. We also celebrate the circularity of existence, building upon simple circle dance structures that have existed since pagan times. The workshop allows space for sharing our own dance on the second day, in a collective celebration of creativity, death and renewal. Suitable for anyone who loves to move.
