WHAT IS DIVINE DANCE PARTY?

Divine Dance Party is an opportunity to re-connect with Source &  remember what you already know deep down: You are a Divine Being living in human form. Dance wakes us up to our potential, AND...it's fun! Whether you are joining the dance for a spiritual tune up or a cardio experience, you are sure to find something juicy and delicious at Divine Dance Party. Please join us virtually (via ZOOM or FB LIVE) or in-person ( in the Dance Sanctuary at A Living Temple in Charleston, SC).  I dance to feel good. To connect to Source. To celebrate. To grieve. Why do you dance?


 When people are low, shamans & medicine women ask: 

~ When did you last sing? 

~ When did you last dance? 

~ When did you last share stories? 

~ When did you last take deep comfort in silence? 


WHAT IS DIVINE DANCE? (NOW LIVE & IN-PERSON!)

  • 45 minutes of guided movement led by Cathryn the Grateful which starts slow (emphasis on stretching), builds to energetic dance, cool down and free dance
  • barefoot dancing highly recommended
  • an embodied JOYFUL workout for mind, body and spirit (for all levels, ages, genders)
  • comfortable dance/yoga attire suggested

WHY DANCE?

  • Great excercise
  • Develop MOBILITY, FLEXIBILITY, AGILITY, STRENGTH & STABILITY
  • Generates JOY & PLEASURE in your body
  • Grounded in NIA TECHNIQUE, a form of movement that incorporates the martial arts, the healing arts, and the dance arts

WE HAVE COME TO BE DANCED.

We have come to be danced
Not the pretty dance
Not the pretty pretty, pick me, pick me dance
But the claw our way back into the belly
Of the sacred, sensual animal dance
The unhinged, unplugged, cat is out of its box dance
The holding the precious moment in the palms
Of our hands and feet dance.

We have come to be danced
Not the jiffy booby, shake your booty for him dance
But the wring the sadness from our skin dance
The blow the chip off our shoulder dance.
The slap the apology from our posture dance.

We have come to be danced
Not the monkey see, monkey do dance
One two dance like you
One two three, dance like me dance
but the grave robber, tomb stalker
Tearing scabs and scars open dance
The rub the rhythm raw against our soul dance.
We have come to be danced
Not the nice, invisible, self-conscious shuffle
But the matted hair flying, voodoo mama
Shaman shakin’ ancient bones dance
The strip us from our casings, return our wings
Sharpen our claws and tongues dance
The shed dead cells and slip into
The luminous skin of love dance.

We have come to be danced
Not the hold our breath and wallow in the shallow end of the floor dance
But the meeting of the trinity, the body breath and beat dance
The shout hallelujah from the top of our thighs dance
The mother may I?
Yes you may take 10 giant leaps dance
The olly olly oxen free free free dance
The everyone can come to our heaven dance.

We have come to be danced
Where the kingdom’s collide
In the cathedral of flesh
To burn back into the light
To unravel, to play, to fly, to pray
To root in skin sanctuary
We have come to be danced

WE HAVE COME.
