Women’s Dance Retreats

Women's Urban Summer Retreat 09 Dancing you Sensuality Workshop

There have been four magical Women’s Urban Retreats held at the Inner Movement Centre. They have all been a wonderful womanly experience for all who attended.

This is what some of the women have to say about their experiences:

Beautiful Maria the last couple of days flash back in my mind I smile and giggle with delight . . . and at your beauty. I bow down in honour & appreciation for what magic you have sparked in me by being you and sharing it. Thank you ATWomen's Urban Summer Retreat 09 Lunch time

I still feel the ongoing joys and peace of that weekend and especially of connecting in such a special way with such amazing women. (Very like the image of the card I pulled on the first evening: the three dancing fates. I remember saying there was so much music and harmony in that image.) It continues to feed a small sacred sanctuary within me: my home, my springboard for dancing, enjoying good food, connecting with an open heart, living with all the messy, noisy, loving, peaceful vigour which is being without boundaries. Thank you!! NMSummer retreat 2009 Temple party

Love and sunshine and hugs C

Moon Dance Rituals

Celebrating and calling on the Dark and Full moon as a source of inspiration and transformation through Dance Movement Creativity and the gathering of feminine energy.

Lunar power directly and indirectly influences our lives on many levels. By
creating a conscious connection to this force we can harness the power of
the moon to nourish the journey of growth and insight.

These Drawing Down the Moon’s Rituals often occur at exactly the times that she goes
into her fullest and darkest moments.

During this powerful moment of primal energy we will create a form through meditation, dance and movement to express what cannot be spoken but is known in our bodies.

Serpentine Ritual Dance

Deep in our bellies lies the memory of Sacred Serpentine Power. In this dance ritual you will be guided on a journey that embraces the power of the belly and the Serpentine movements of the spine.

You will be invited to dance your physical, astral, mental and spiritual bodies. Like the serpent that finds the crack between the rocks and disappears into the darkness, you will be invited to slide through the layers from one energy field to the next. Dancing your breath, belly and spine, accessing the full potential of the fluid undulating movements of the spine, the physical powerhouse of Snake Energy. As the Snaking spine ripples and flows a river of energy though all of your joints and muscles, spiralling out from your core centre you will emerge out of the darkness of your inner journey, you will be invited to find you feet and dance in the new light of you.

This Serpentine Ritual Dance experience is for those who want to find the authenticity of self in their dance. This awareness connects to the whole self beyond just the physical, and the drills and technique.

Give meaning to the beauty and power of the snake movements of belly dance and truly embody Snake Energy. Your dance style and technique will be enriched, strengthen and supported by this deep connections to your essences and to the source of all that is.
