We set our intentions, focus awareness on the candle flame in the center, and lean into the comforting sensation of being held in the circle. The dances start of …

Contra dance is a kind of social dance with live music where a caller teaches the figures.  You don't need to come with a partner, and while there is a short lesson before each of our dances it's optional.  Most people learn contra dancing by doing it. It looks like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beOFeIIk4KY You should wear comfortable clothes that you can move easily in.  High heels don't work well.  We'll have water but if you'd like to save cups bringing a water bottle is good.

Inside us reside the images and narratives of who we are- everything that has ever happened to us. The idea behind my original creation, Fusion-Improvisation, is that if we can engage and refine the vessel we call body, there is no limit to how we can reveal our souls. When we are skilled with our b …
