_African healing dance is African dance PLUS! African healing dance is much more than physical movement. It is a
direct way to celebrate life and create healing. From the movements of
nature, of animals and elements, and of everyday life, the people of
Africa developed specific dances to summon the energy of the world
around them into their bodies for connection and healing. As creator and facilitator of the African healing dance, Wyoma creates the space and
provides the vehicle for spiritual and emotional healing through the
dances of Africa.
With the rhythms of live African drumming and recorded music, participants explore their own natural rhythms. Wyoma will lead participant to a deeper awareness of self, nature, and the spirits of Africa through traditional dances, music, proverbs, and games of Africa and the diaspora.
In her workshop, Wyoma also integrates cycle of life movement, improvisation, and yogic techniques. By fostering a non-judgmental atmosphere, every participant is able to express themselves freely, relax in their bodies, sweat, and have fun! No dance background is required – this is the dance of life. Lectures, discussions, and dialogue are woven into the program.
Participants who would like to bring instruments are encouraged to do so. Comfortable clothing for dance is recommended.
