Happy International Biodanza Day! In celebration, here are some words (translated!) from creator Rolando Toro: Manifesto We are the memory of the world. We just have to remember what Is in our cells. The fruits of summer Voluptuous love. The ability to put yourself in place Of the other. The contact. The courage to innovate. The hug, the goodbye, and the meeting. The sea on our skin. The music of life. The dance of life. Biodanza returns us The ancestral memory The absolute possibility of love. It’s getting to be the season of outdoor dancing again! We’ll be opening the ecstatic dance and Beltane celebration at @thymetravelersconservatory on 5/2 then and we’ll be back at @cocoon_philly on 5/8!

Our Nobility of the Heart weekend kicks off in Philly this Friday evening, 2/27! We have two senior teachers joining us as well as several other facilitators. This is one you won’t want to miss! While the immersion at @cocoon_philly is at capacity, we have secured a larger venue for our Friday evening open vivencia. That will be held at the Chestnut Hill Friends Meeting (20 E. Mermaid Lane, 19118) at 7pm. Sign-up link is in profile above. $35 if you pre-registrar and $40 at the door (space permitting). We exuberantly invite you to join us for a very special Biodanza experience in Philadelphia with a Master Teacher and lineage holder! At its core, Biodanza is a practice on cultivating the beauty of life. The dance is a call to our collective re-enchantment with the heart and its affective power to lead us from chaos back to reverent, humane order. Together we will journey through an exquisite blend of music, movement, and relational encounter, skillfully interwoven to promote self-expression, aliveness, open-heartedness, and a deep respect for the sanctity of life at the center. Suitable for all bodies and experience levels, our weekend fosters a deeply supportive, inclusive community. Come explore your majestic inner rhythm and connect with that of others. The Dance of Life promises a true feast for soma and soul! Come dance with us! And check out our recent press in the @chestnuthilllocal !
