SUMMARY:Open Floor Community Dance
DESCRIPTION:Join a fabulous Open Floor Dance community\, sharing the joy of embodied movement most Tuesdays at Mana.  \nWhen: \nMost Tuesday Mornings at Mana. \nTime: 10:00–11:45AM / COST: $25-$20 Sliding Scale \nFeel free to arrive from 9:45am. T he music will be on if you’d like a longer warmup\, or if you’re new come early so we can welcome you. \nWhat is Open Floor Conscious Dance? \nOpen Floor is a lively dance and movement practice that energises the body and opens the mind. \nThere are no moves to learn. We simply show up and move with whatever is present: our creative minds\, our tender hearts\, our joys and excitements\, our aches and pains. And in the process we discover our own unique dance. \nClasses include guided inquiry as well as time to follow your own dance. The teachers select diverse music to inspire creative expression\, wild abandon and quiet awareness. Sometimes we experience insights and healing\, and sometimes we simply have a great dance. \nThe open dance floor becomes a playground for exploring the relational nature of being human: our ever-changing needs for solitude\, connection and a sense of community. We learn life skills that serve us on and off the dance floor\, helping us to develop a flexibility and resilience that enables us to respond creatively to life. \nNo experience is required. \nThe invitation is to come just as you are. \nFOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT OPEN FLOOR DANCE LOCATIONS CONTACT PIPPA OR LISA \nPippa: 02102963632 or visit Prana Dance \nInstagram: @pranadance_nz / www.facebook\,com/pranadance \nLisa: 0211754741 or visit www.wildbonesopenfloor.co.nz \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wildbonesopenfloor \nEmail: wildbonesopenfloor@gmail.com
