This inspiring workshop combines Middle Eastern dance with the life-transforming system of the Chinese five elements.
For thousands of years, the Chinese sages have recognized that we all exist within five different elements. In this workshop, Titanya and Dondi Dahlin show us how belly dancing can help us discover which of these elements dominates our lives and how to balance them to improve our health and gain a deeper understanding of our bodies.
Using dance movements and storytelling exercises, we take a journey through these elements: the compassion of earth, the excitement of fire, the depth of water, the strength of wood, and the clarity of metal. While focusing on these basic movements, Titanya and Dondi teach us various styles of belly dance and explore with us Middle Eastern music, movement, history, and culture.
Extended hours. See the participant letter for more information (pdf format; must have Adobe Acrobat Reader).
