Sacred circle dance is a collective dance experience that draws from ancient and traditional folk dances, many from Eastern Europe and the Balkans. Dancing both traditional and contemporary dances, we will celebrate the arrival of autumn, its abundance and beauty, and ground and nurture ourselves in this this season of doing. We will dance to cultivate the mindfulness needed to move through the autumn with peace, clarity, and joy. No dance experience is needed (just basic mobility and coordination), as the dances are simple to moderately easy, and the dance steps repetitive. This allows the dance to dance us! (The word “sacred” describes the space we create. There is no religion affiliated with these dances.)
If you love to dance, come and enjoy this wonderful form of movement meditation!

Lisa Bardack, sacred circle dance facilitator, has been dancing most of her life, feeling a deep sense of authenticity with this art form. It was in 1997 that she first experienced sacred circle dance and fell in love with this collective experience of dancing ancient and traditional steps, some thousands of years old, to wonderful music from around the world. She has studied sacred circle dance for over 15 years and has been teaching since 2008. In addition to her background in dance, Lisa has also studied yoga, tai chi, qigong, NIA and other forms of dance, cultivating a seasoned understanding of body movement as an instrument for joy, healing and wisdom.
