<div>date line 10/30/09 <br/> <br/> Updated Class Description From Mr Shelly Plaisance ::: Get you Friday morning started right with sound .... <br/> <br/> "Eastern Rhythms for the Western Ear and Group Musical Dynamics" is actually geared toward GROUPS AND TROUPES. <br/> <br/> Why? Because it's my theory that as dancers, if you all learn how to breathe and move and make rhythm together, you are not only closer and more cohesive, but more authentic and engaging as performers! Now, imagine yourselves performing, the audience on the edge of their seats... and from no where, you begin to make rhythm with your bodies and maybe even small percussion, or BIG percussion ... AND THEN you all begin moving, dancing, creating SOUND &amp; MOVEMENT all on your own! <br/> <br/>No electronics, no CD, just the organic nature of humans making rhythm. And that my friends is the premise of this class :) Hopefully you'll learn a little more about how to recognize and identify rhythms, but more importantly, hopefully you will learn how to hear rhythm in a way that will allow you to become one with your music. <br/> <br/>Wow -I wanna wake up like that on Friday... ME ME! - let's see if they'll let me sneak out of registration...... <br/>Thanx to Nari and Jo and Sahira.... I GET ONE WHOLE DAY OFF THIS YEAR!.... what day s/ I take off???? oh bother... the choices...... <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ <br/> <br/>NEXT ITEM <br/> <br/>Developing one on one class options ::: Nothing firm yet - but this is ""developing"" - and I am sharing. PLEASE Let us know if you are an interested party by posting a reply here.... that will encourage us to make it happen for you. <br/> <br/> A few of our teachers are considering offering :: <br/> 1) 30 minute performance review sessions (i.e. submit a youtube sample of you well in advance of the event - then you can spend time talking about &amp; getting some constructive criticism / direction / pointers on where you might want to concentrate your drills/ education / study efforts. <br/> <br/> 2) 1 hour private dance sessions <br/> <br/>These opportunities will develop further ..... and we hope to be able to open them for scheduling sometime in November. <br/> <br/> <br/>The teachers &amp; students I have spoken to are very excited about the suggestion of a performance review... some have said::: <br/> <br/>**** i hope we get some takers as this is sooooo valuable for dancers of any level! i went to art school so i LOVE this kind of critical/formative feedback <br/>*** I think constructive criticism is so helpful, since most people are willing to give compliments, and don't want to be critical (at least not openly). <br/>**** Thanks Z! This is such a good idea! <br/>**** I support this notion. Thinking of my ballet teacher, her words were often harsh, but filled with support. A majority of teachers in this community err on the side of being too complimentary to their students. To improve, we all need to hear more than compliments. <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>+++++++++++++++++++++++++ <br/>NEXT ITEM ! <br/> <br/> James Hazlerig ~ Dance Like a Goddess: Group Hypnosis - Friday class - Sold Out.... <br/> <br/> <br/> We have added a second on Saturday at 11:15am.... check it out. <br/> And here is a little more abt the process <br/> www.harmonyhypnosis.net/hypnodance.htm <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>All this and more.... http://3rdcoast2010.eventbrite.com/ <br/> <br/> <br/>+++++++++++++++++++++ <br/> <br/>NEXT ITEM! <br/> <br/>There are an ever evolving batch of classes that are down to single digit availability..... get them while you can.... ! <br/> <br/> <br/> Happy Halloween! <br/> Dia de los Muertos <br/> All Saints Day <br/> All Souls Day... <br/> <br/> <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://UrbanGypsy.tribe.net">! 3rd Coast Tribal n' URBAN GYPSY !</a> - 1 reply </div>

<div>Thank you dancing queens for your interest in being a part of one of the 3C shows! <br/> <br/>NEW THIS YEAR! <br/> <br/>Please send all requests for show coordination to: <br/> 3c_show_divas@3rdcoasttribal.us <br/> <br/> <br/>This email account is monitored by volunteers who will create &amp; co-ordinate the shows for you (and for us...THANK YOU!!) Please be patient waiting for a response.... they are volunteers! <br/> <br/> <br/>For now here is the text about performing right offa da web page.....and yes ! there is more there to see.... http://3rdcoasttribal.us/info.html <br/> <br/>++++++++++++++++++++++++++ <br/> <br/> <br/>Interested in Sharing Your Stagecraft With Us? <br/>We are excited to be offering two amazing shows again this year. After receiving such great feedback this year we've learned that one of the most important things to our audience is great performances with a lot of diversity. So we are on the lookout for an amazing array of performers for our shows!! <br/> <br/>We are looking for talented artists to create distinct and unique shows that encompass a wide range of styles and dancers. Our aim is to create the best shows possible. We do not require performers to be "professionals"; however, we are looking for performers with a high level of proficiency in their respective style. We embrace the entire spectrum of dance at the 3rd Coast Dance Festival and welcome every submission from Dark to Light, Fusion to Folkloric and Egyptian to Experimental with a Theatrical flair. <br/> <br/>We give preference to our event participants, people travelling from out-of-state, truly gifted performers, and those that can follow instructions. All show participants must support the event by attending at least 7 hours of classes. With 80+ hours to choose from...that won't be difficult! <br/> <br/>Our selection committee will review the dvd/youtube submissions and send out offers to those that we feel would best fit our vision. There are always more applicants than space available and lack of inclusion does not indicate lack of appreciation in any way, shape, or form. <br/> <br/>For now, if you or your troupe are interested in performing in one of the 3C shows, check the appropriate box in eventbrite when you register for your classes. Then in August 2009, plan to submit a DVD/You Tube performance audition video. Please plan to submit a performance within the genre or style in which you would like to perform. We will begin to put the show line ups together in the fall, so you will have plenty of lead time before the show! <br/> <br/> <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://UrbanGypsy.tribe.net">! 3rd Coast Tribal n' URBAN GYPSY !</a> - 5 replies </div>

<div>Tribal Alchemy Workshops <br/> <br/>Friday OCTOBER 16th <br/>1:00-3:00 <br/>Dave Hall <br/>Drummer &amp; Dancer Workshop $36.00 <br/>1:00-3:00 <br/>Rose Harden <br/>Rock Solid Fusion Foundation $36.00 <br/>Building Your Practice From The Ground Up! <br/>Enhance and deepen your understanding of belly dance fundamentals with technique drills and tribal fusion combos. Rose will cover layering, shimmies, and up-tempo movements -- great for any style of bellydance! This class will accommodate all levels of experience. <br/>3:30-5:30 <br/>Elizabeth Strong <br/>Musicality and Combinations $36.00 <br/>3:30-5:30 <br/>Natalie Brown <br/>Theatrical Bellydance $36.00 <br/>After running away and joining (and directing) a circus two years ago, Natalie has performed in everything from top hats to feather boyshorts. Learn to create cohesive theatrical productions with the right music, atmosphere, moves and costuming, and successfully walk the fine line between radiance and ridiculousness. Learn one of Natalie's signature character choreographies, drawing on tribal fusion, ballet and acting vocabularies. <br/> <br/>Saturday OCTOBER 17th <br/>10:00-12:00 <br/>Rose Harden <br/>Icing the Cake: Contemporary Tribal Fusion $36.00 <br/>We'll kick things up a bit here! Level changes, fancy footwork, and spins are the name of the game. Because we will be building on our foundation from the first class, it is recommended that you take both classes. Previous belly dance experience requested if taken without workshop 1. <br/> <br/>10:00-12:00 <br/>SHAKRA <br/>Exploring the Anatomy of Power <br/>Join Shakra for an extensive dissection of high impact movement to discover empowerment through power moves. Using action-packed movements from specimens such as West African Dance, Bhangra, and their own Transfusion Style, Shakra will show you how to harness personal power and channel that energy to areas of the body where it is needed most. This workshop will also observe ways we lose physical and mental energy that affects endurance and performance. Be prepared to be worked from head to toe so bring Schmatorade (half water, half Gatorade) or your favorite thirst quencher. <br/>12:30-2:30 <br/>Mira Betz <br/>In Praise of Improvization (exercises to gain proficiency at improvisation) $36.00 <br/>Many dancers enjoy the sanctuary of choreography to recorded music: No surprises, right? This workshop is about jumping off that boat and swimming with the sharks of improvisation and live music. We will address issues such as musical intuition, communication (verbal and nonverbal) with the musicians, connection to the audience, expression of self, and the flawless treatment of the inevitable faux pas. <br/>12:30-2:30 <br/>Dave Hall <br/>Drummer Composition Workshop $36.00 <br/>This class will be teaching you how to layer rhythms so you can make the beats you know more interesting, creating melodies for drums, and combining rhythms together to create songs for drums. You will also learn about odd beats such as 5, 7 &amp; 9 and how to create your own rhythms too. This class is for all drums and percussion so bring what you have and is open to all skill levels. <br/>3:00-5:00 <br/>Asharah <br/>The Cymbalist Movement: Integrating Finger Cymbals into Your Dance $36.00 <br/>Finger cymbals are an integral part of American Tribal Style bellydance, and can be a lovely accompaniment to a solo performance. However, many dancers often feel daunted by cymbal playing and have been using them less and less… Finger cymbals aren’t scary, and this workshop will help you approach cymbals as an instrument and as a way to enhance your performance. With the right exercises, anyone can play cymbals and dance! Asharah will lead you through an intense warm up, teach drills that layer movements and cymbal playing, introduce common cymbal patterns found in Middle Eastern music, and teach a short dance combination focusing on the playing of your cymbals with the music and your movements. <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>3:00-5:00 <br/>Elizabeth Strong <br/>Strengthening, Layering and Floorwork $36.00 <br/>Have you ever wished that you had more technique at your fingertips to express the rhythms and melody of the music? <br/>This workshop explores isolating multiple parts of the body simultaneously and applies the technique to musicality. Strength and safety for moving up, down and around during floorwork will also be covered. And learn a couple combinations that can be easily integrated into any dance choreography. Bring a sword or tray for an extra challenge. <br/>Sunday OCTOBER 18th <br/>10:00-12:00 <br/>Belladonna <br/>Sword Workshop $36.00 <br/>Belladonna is a master of sword dance. She is well-known for her double sword work and her un-dulled scimitar balancing. Let her guide you through using your sword as a partner and infusing strength and purpose into your sword work. Swords are for more than just balancing – they can be sensual and powerful partners. The class includes information on the basics of choosing a sword that is right for you, care, techniques, and/or choreography. <br/>10:00-12:00 <br/>SOOZ <br/>New Moves to Inspire You! ATS 101! $36.00 <br/>Been dancing tribal for awhile? Wanna spice up your improv? Here are some new moves recently added to the ATS vocabulary and also re-visiting the tried &amp; true moves to drill them correctly. Bring zills! **Dancers should know the basics of taxeem, hand floreos, shimmy, arabic, Egyptian basic, pivot bumps &amp; choo choo's. <br/>12:30-2:30 <br/>Mira Betz <br/>Taxeem: All that Oozes $36.00 <br/>Focuses on arms and hands and moving slowly, with power and intention. <br/>An articulate workshop designed to enhance the poise and fluidity of the taxeem, introducing dancers to movement vocabulary beyond the “Tribal Frame” as well as polishing transitions. We will address such issues as timing, musical and personal interpretation, illusions of the boneless dancer, and Sensual Vs. Sexual. <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>12:30-3:30 <br/>Urban Gypsy <br/>Flirty and Folkloric - A NEW Urban Gypsy Signature Choreography $50.00 <br/> <br/>Fast and fabulous, flirty and folkloric - learn a new Urban Gypsy signature choreography made just for you and Tribal Alchemy! The ladies of Urban Gypsy have expanded their folkloric dance study to continue to understand and appreciate the diverse cultures of Egypt. All this tribally folkloric goodness has been put together into a dance that will knock you off your feet! Part Ghawazee, with bits of Bedouin, some Saiidi and (of course) lots of good ol' tribal belly dance. In this three hour class, the choreography will be broken down first by technique with attention given to the origination and history of some of the more folkloric movements. Then we will build combinations that can be used within your own solo or troupe work. Finally, the combinations will be pieced together into a fast folkloric-inspired tribal number that will harkens back to the days of the desert and remind you of exactly why you fell in love with the dance! <br/> <br/>THE COMPLETE PACKAGE!!!!!!! <br/>Cost-$276.00 <br/>8 Classes, Friday Night Show Ticket, Alchemy T-shirt and all the fun you can handle! <br/> It’s the complete Alchemy experience!

<div>DANCERS AND MUSICIANS! <br/>Do NOT miss your chance to study with August! <br/> <br/>I saw August perform at Tribal Con IV and was completely floored.

So if you want to learn to dance to live music and work with August in a workshop setting, here's your opportunity! <br/>Musicians and dancers alike will learn so much from this wonderfully gifted musician! <br/> <br/>Register for his workshop here: http://3rdcoast2010.eventbrite.com/ <br/> <br/>Check out this video of August to get a glimpse of his talent: <br/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iz7_8hB0R8M <br/> <br/> <br/>WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION: <br/>Thurs 6:45-8:45p - August Hoerr ~ FOR DANCERS &amp; MUSICIANS>> Live Music: Because a Round of Drinks is Cheaper than an iPod (2hours-Stage) <br/> <br/>Live music can take your performance to a new strata of stage presence, power, and community pleasure. Musicians love dancers that can clearly describe what they need, and dancers love musicians that honor those needs while making them look wonderful. This high-spirited, interactive workshop addresses etiquette, effective communication onstage and off, and tips on how to successfully collaborate while being aware of everyone's interests. These fun exercises in creating strong entrances, transitioning tempos, and ending fabulously will all be accompanied by the (strains, wheezes, and mellifluous sounds of the) Accordion. <br/> <br/>Register for his workshop here: http://3rdcoast2010.eventbrite.com/ <br/> <br/>BIOGRAPHY: <br/>August Hoerr, Esoteric Instrumentalist <br/>August taught himself to play accordion as angsty teenager, and after discovering Middle Eastern music, began working with Tribal dancers in 1999.

They have taught and performed at events including Tribal Fest, TribalCon, and Tribal Revolution, and they are scheduled to continue touring throughout the United States. The Mezmer Society is fully committed to spreading the aesthetic of hafla joy as quickly and loudly as possible. <br/> <br/>In addition to to The Mezmer Society, August is a member of the quartet Ashes in Order, and maintains a career as an internationally represented figurative painter.

Previous belly dance experience requested if taken without workshop 1. .... <br/>.. .. <br/>10:00-12:00.... <br/>SHAKRA.... <br/>Exploring the Anatomy of Power.... <br/>Join Shakra for an extensive dissection of high impact movement to discover empowerment through power moves. Using action-packed movements from specimens such as West African Dance, Bhangra, and their own Transfusion Style, Shakra will show you how to harness personal power and channel that energy to areas of the body where it is needed most. This workshop will also observe ways we lose physical and mental energy that affects endurance and performance.

This class is for all drums and percussion so bring what you have and is open to all skill levels..... <br/>3:00-5:00.... <br/>Asharah.... <br/>The Cymbalist Movement: Integrating Finger Cymbals into Your Dance $36.00.... <br/>Finger cymbals are an integral part of American Tribal Style bellydance, and can be a lovely accompaniment to a solo performance. However, many dancers often feel daunted by cymbal playing and have been using them less and less… Finger cymbals aren’t scary, and this workshop will help you approach cymbals as an instrument and as a way to enhance your performance. With the right exercises, anyone can play cymbals and dance! Asharah will lead you through an intense warm up, teach drills that layer movements and cymbal playing, introduce common cymbal patterns found in Middle Eastern music, and teach a short dance combination focusing on the playing of your cymbals with the music and your movements..... <br/>3:00-5:00.... <br/>Elizabeth Strong.... <br/>Strengthening, Layering and Floorwork $36.00.... <br/>Have you ever wished that you had more technique at your fingertips to express the rhythms and melody of the music? <br/>This workshop explores isolating multiple parts of the body simultaneously and applies the technique to musicality. Strength and safety for moving up, down and around during floorwork will also be covered. And learn a couple combinations that can be easily integrated into any dance choreography.

The ladies of Urban Gypsy have expanded their folkloric dance study to continue to understand and appreciate the diverse cultures of Egypt. All this tribally folkloric goodness has been put together into a dance that will knock you off your feet! Part Ghawazee, with bits of Bedouin, some Saiidi and (of course) lots of good ol' tribal belly dance. In this three hour class, the choreography will be broken down first by technique with attention given to the origination and history of some of the more folkloric movements. Then we will build combinations that can be used within your own solo or troupe work. Finally, the combinations will be pieced together into a fast folkloric-inspired tribal number that will harkens back to the days of the desert and remind you of exactly why you fell in love with the dance! <br/> <br/>.. .. <br/>THE COMPLETE PACKAGE!!!!!!!.... <br/>Cost-$276.00.... <br/>8 Classes, Friday Night Show Ticket, Alchemy T-shirt and all the fun you can handle!.... <br/> It’s the complete Alchemy experience!

Previous belly dance experience requested if taken without workshop 1. <br/> <br/>10:00-12:00 <br/>SHAKRA <br/>Exploring the Anatomy of Power <br/>Join Shakra for an extensive dissection of high impact movement to discover empowerment through power moves. Using action-packed movements from specimens such as West African Dance, Bhangra, and their own Transfusion Style, Shakra will show you how to harness personal power and channel that energy to areas of the body where it is needed most. This workshop will also observe ways we lose physical and mental energy that affects endurance and performance. Be prepared to be worked from head to toe so bring Schmatorade (half water, half Gatorade) or your favorite thirst quencher. <br/>12:30-2:30 <br/>Mira Betz <br/>In Praise of Improvization (exercises to gain proficiency at improvisation) $36.00 <br/>12:30-2:30 <br/>Dave Hall <br/>Drummer Composition Workshop $36.00 <br/>This class will be teaching you how to layer rhythms so you can make the beats you know more interesting, creating melodies for drums, and combining rhythms together to create songs for drums. You will also learn about odd beats such as 5, 7 &amp; 9 and how to create your own rhythms too. This class is for all drums and percussion so bring what you have and is open to all skill levels. <br/>3:00-5:00 <br/>Asharah <br/>The Cymbalist Movement: Integrating Finger Cymbals into Your Dance $36.00 <br/>Finger cymbals are an integral part of American Tribal Style bellydance, and can be a lovely accompaniment to a solo performance. However, many dancers often feel daunted by cymbal playing and have been using them less and less… Finger cymbals aren’t scary, and this workshop will help you approach cymbals as an instrument and as a way to enhance your performance. With the right exercises, anyone can play cymbals and dance! Asharah will lead you through an intense warm up, teach drills that layer movements and cymbal playing, introduce common cymbal patterns found in Middle Eastern music, and teach a short dance combination focusing on the playing of your cymbals with the music and your movements. <br/>3:00-5:00 <br/>Elizabeth Strong <br/>Strengthening, Layering and Floorwork $36.00 <br/>Have you ever wished that you had more technique at your fingertips to express the rhythms and melody of the music? <br/>This workshop explores isolating multiple parts of the body simultaneously and applies the technique to musicality. Strength and safety for moving up, down and around during floorwork will also be covered. And learn a couple combinations that can be easily integrated into any dance choreography. Bring a sword or tray for an extra challenge. <br/>Sunday <br/>10:00-12:00 <br/>Belladonna <br/>Sword Workshop: Description coming soon $36.00 <br/>10:00-12:00 <br/>SOOZ <br/>New Moves to Inspire You!

<div>You asked, I deliver.Tribal fusion workshop at Ballam Studio: <br/> “Sultan Drops” or “How to Dance like The Indigo’ <br/> <br/>In this workshop we will learn an entire routine designed by Rachel Brice and passed onto me many moons ago in Europe!! Although I have adapted some of it to fit students of all levels, many bits remained untouched, so you will be getting the original San Francisco Bay tribal-fusion bellydance style that made famous all the ladies of the Indigo! <br/>The workshop will start with a good warm-up and conditioning paying extra attention to posture and stylization. We will proceed then to break down and drill the combos that will build up the entire routine! <br/>This routine is suitable for all levels although some experience in bellydance is recommended. <br/> <br/>Ballam Dance and Well Being. August 8th 1:00- 4:00pm <br/>1245 Heights Blvd. Corner of 13th street, inside building of Grace United Methodist Church. <br/>Workshop fee: 35$ <br/>Space is limited, so early registration is recommended. To register please email Silvia at: <br/>SilviaBellydance@gmail.com <br/> <br/>About the instructor: <br/>Silvia Salamanca is a life-long dancer from Mallorca, Spain. She started her career as a belly dancer in 2001, when realizing the enormous benefits that this art-form brings to women in both body and spirit (something that she felt truly missing in other dance practices). From her first teachers, Tasnim Melendres and the acclaimed Nur Banu, two natural born-Egyptians, she realized how with the practice of belly dance that women can get closer to their self identity and discover oneself in a new level, increasing self-esteem, releasing stress and getting deeply in touch with the feminine essence in their soul. With her work in the field of Zambra Mora (spanish gypsy-oriental dance fusion) Silvia has gained international recognition and is currently invited to teach workshops and perform in major festivals in Europe and across the USA, and will be part next November of the international Jury of the Contest for the Bellydancer of the World hosted in Germany. <br/> <br/>..</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://UrbanGypsy.tribe.net">! 3rd Coast Tribal n' URBAN GYPSY !</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>No matter how you count it... UG is another year old... or soon to be. <br/> <br/>*Sahira began classes for 'Houston Tribal' in April 2003....free and open to all and any who were interested in the format. <br/>*Auditions were in late May/Early June... <br/>** Founding members Sahira, Julie, Reetu &amp; Z. <br/>*** And Kat, Rita &amp; Paula became Gypsy Sister... <br/> June 2003 Photo shoot! <br/>http://urbangypsy.cc/photoshoot/photoshoot.html <br/> <br/>We then played around w/ names... and became Urban Gypsy. <br/>Our debut performance was on July 26th, 2003! <br/> <br/> <br/>So whenever you want to call us "born".... I think it is right around now.... let's hear it for 6 years...

<div> <br/>SAD GOODBYE TO 'COSMOPOLITAN' CAIRO <br/>By Christian Fraser BBC News, Cairo <br/> <br/>These days the centre of Cairo is a dusty, polluted, overcrowded metropolis. But in the 1940s it was a city full of style and culture, the beating heart of an Arab renaissance. <br/> <br/>Downtown the bars and nightclubs flourished along the sweeping boulevards attracting all sorts of adventurers from around the world. Since then many of the bars and cabaret clubs have fallen into disrepair and disrepute, as the Egyptians grow more observant of conservative Islam. <br/> <br/>"Most of these places have since disappeared, particularly those that faced out on to the street - people didn't want to see that any more." <br/> <br/>The Sharezad club has survived the cull, but this belly-dancing venue is a far cry from its glorious heyday. <br/> <br/>Inside there are heavy red velvet curtains and on the walls the photos of the some of the world's best belly-dancers, who once came here to shake their stuff. <br/> <br/>Max Rodenbeck, journalist and author of Cairo, the City Victorious, says belly-dancing has faded out in the last 10 years. <br/> <br/>"It has really suffered from the wave of conservatism that has passed over this place," Mr Rodenbeck says. <br/> <br/>"You no longer go out to a nightclub and sit with your friends, put a bottle of whisky on the table and smoke lots of cigarettes. That's not what people do any more. In a way downtown Cairo has degentrified..." <br/> <br/>Another writer who looks back with fondness on the Cairo of old is the author of the best-selling novel The Yacoubian Building. Dr Alaa al-Aswany blames the slow death of downtown Cairo on the encroachment of conservative Islam. <br/> <br/>"From the beginning of the 1980s it became very hard, sometimes impossible, for the owner to pass on the liquor licence to a son or a new owner," he said. <br/> <br/>"I think it is all part of the government's attempts to counteract the fanatics - but they are doing in the wrong way. The government's trying to make the point they are as religious as the fanatics. It is silly really." <br/> <br/>Story from BBC NEWS: http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/pr/fr/-/2/hi/middle_east/7936048.stm <br/>Published: 2009/03/17 07:32:02 GMT <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://UrbanGypsy.tribe.net">! 3rd Coast Tribal n' URBAN GYPSY !</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>TO: DANCERS OF ALL GENERES <br/> <br/>FROM: RAQUEL A MITCHELL <br/> <br/>SUBJECT: THE ONTOLOGY OF DANCE: THE MYTHOLOGICAL, PHILOSOPHICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, AND SPIRITUAL DIMENSIONS OF BEING AND EXISTING THROUGH MOVEMENT AND DANCE. <br/> <br/>DATE: MARCH 13, 2009 <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>Dear dancers of all genres, levels of experience, and walks of life, <br/> <br/>My name is Raquel and I am a graduate student of the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (Palo Alto, CA), as well as a dancer living on the East Coast. I’ve been dancing since the age of three and have been an active lover of the many forms of Raks Sharqi for over 6 years, and now consider myself to be a Movement Artist(this is due to the integration of my dance and spiritual practice). After my participation in two dance companies (Bellyqueen and Desert Sin), my contact and intimate interaction with the Divine Feminine has led me to a depth of mystery and self discovery, which has given birth to a new perspective on this dance, dance in general, and life/existing/being. <br/> <br/>This announcement is being posted because of my ever growing interest in dance as a tool for spiritual growth, human development, and a valid medium for existence and being for those that consider dance to be their life’s blood. <br/> <br/>A questionnaire {or a Quest-ionnaire which implies a journey} has been developed based on the essence of the topic idea: Spiritual and Transpersonal Practice of Movement and Dance, and how this is a use for spiritual growth for some, and how it is a driving force of life for others (and my curiosity as to why that is). <br/> <br/>The intimate relationship I have developed with ontology and dance is the basis for my thesis project, and this is what motivates me to learn more about the essentials of it. <br/> <br/>You are invites to participate in this preliminary questionnaire as part of an ongoing research inquiry. <br/>This questionnaire is to initiate my prospective field of research, stemming from my Master’s study in Transpersonal Psychology into the Doctorate field of study. <br/> <br/>There is still much organization and work to be done, as well as integration to tend to. After receiving this preliminary questionnaire from you, I will proceed into a more in-depth series of questions in regards to existence and being through dance and movement, tailored to each dancer that participates. <br/> <br/>Please let me know if you would like to participate by emailing me at: <br/> <br/>embodiedmover@gmail.com <br/> <br/>so that I may attach the survey in my reply to you. <br/> <br/>If you would like to decline, please respond with a ‘no’ in this post and a brief response or comment as to why. <br/>Without further ado, I invite you to the transpersonal dance practice of existence and being…. <br/> <br/>Many Blessings, <br/> ~Raquel A. M. </div> <div> posted in <a href="http://UrbanGypsy.tribe.net">! 3rd Coast Tribal n' URBAN GYPSY !</a> - 0 replies </div>
