Feel the positive impact that human connection, movement and uplifting music has on your wellbeing. It originated in South America and was created by Rolando Toro, a Psychologist and Anthropologist in the 1960’s and is now taught all over the world. It is a system of personal development and human integration. It’s a way to feel more joy in life and reduce stress through music, movement and connection. It’s not a performance and there are no steps to learn, so you can’t do it wrong. A class will consist of a variety of dance and movement exercises, all of which are explained and then demonstrated by the facilitator. You will then be invited to dance in whatever way you feel inspired to by the music and the suggestions given. There are rhythmic dances for physical well-being and vitality in the first part of the class and slow exercises which induce relaxation in the second half. You will be invited to dance solo, or with another or with the group. You will enjoy a vibrant mix of uplifting music, ranging from tribal drums, jazz, Latin, hip-swaying Samba to soothing classical, to name just a few. Regular participants report feelings of well-being, more joy and confidence in life, and improved health and relationships. Not bad for just an hour and 15 mins dancing!
