Imagine coming into a room where there is 'full permission'.  The music progresses through different rhythms and emotional expressions, while your body stretches, skips, stomps, dances, and sits in full presence.  All of this with no formal steps to follow-- just a safe, welcoming space to become present and express, in whatever ways you feel called in the moment.  That’s conscious dance.
