What is Dance from the Heart?

Dance from the Heart is an intuitive form of healing body movement that helps you to connect with our own Heart’s Wisdom. Dance from the Heart is composed of 7 gentle steps that supports you in several ways:

Grounding in your body
Listening to your heart
Connecting to a heart-felt intention or dream
Releasing any fears or limiting beliefs about your dreams
Embodying your intentions with movement

Dance from the Heart helps you to tap into your own infinite capacity to manifest with greater ease, flow and joy.

Created as a form of sacred dance activism, Dance from the Heart is grounded in practices of trauma-informed care, healing justice and community wellness. Inspired by Gandhi's famous quote: "be the change you wish to see," this radical embodiment practice gives us one way to "be the change we wish to see" by embodying our heart-felt visions for our lives and world.

Anyone can Dance from the Heart. You don't need to know any of the steps or have any prior dance experience. For all bodies and abilities. Check out our next class below!

Here are some testimonials for class participants who took Dance from the Heart this year:

"Dance from the Heart was the best thing I did for myself during the pandemic. I discovered the wisdom and knowledge available to me through moving my body. As someone who never considered themselves good at dancing with no prior formal dance experience, the chance to encounter myself in this way was profound."

“Dance from the Heart was so accessible, and so needed during COVID. I loved having a space to show up and move without being told to *push* my body. Having this time to connect to a specific thing I wanted to manifest, and then move with it was invaluable."

“I battle daily with ruts, and having Dance from the Heart helped me move through them in a safe space to prioritize taking care of myself more, and keep me grounded in pursuit of my goals and desires.”
