SHAKE IT OFF: SHAKTI DANCE
with Mel Lowe
Fridays 6-7pm – Last session before Summer Break 7th August
Shakti Dance is a ‘yoga of dance’ offering a joyful yogic path through the conscious practice of dance. Initially Mantra & Mudra are used to tune mind & body to Spirit, opening a meditative protective space in which to work. Followed by a series of Shakti stretching, gentle & flowing floor asanas to open the pranic body. This current of movement flows up to standing and self-repeating dance steps linked with breath-coordinated movement recharging vitality. The pranic body starts flowing freely and Shakti begins to unfold into Free Dance of self expression. After a relaxation we close with Mantra Meditations as inner & outer worlds are brought into balance while creating a protective auric shield.
The effects of Shakti Dance are immediately noticeable after the first class. Participants report feeling lighter, more free in their movement & at home in their bodies.
