Whatever you feel in your heart effects your whole being and is magnified all around you. Your heart has an electromagnetic field of energy that extends beyond your physical heart by about 2-3 meters. Your heart is literally an organ of perception and transmission. The Sufis, the mystics dedicated to living love in the world, call the heart, the “home of the Beloved,” the gateway to the unlimited quantum field of love consciousness. Your heart can hold the whole through love.
Love is what makes us fully human. Love shows the way through loss and grief and fear, and uncertainty, a pathway that is marked with beauty and deep belonging…summoning in us the strength and the courage to open our heart in trust and witness not with a hard heart, but a heart open and soft, overflowing with compassion in this time of suffering and pain, which brings us into wholeness.
In this 8-Session Module, enter into the sacred shrine of the heart. Open you heart to oneness and unity through dance in a body, grounded and rooted in the Earth and centered in a strong sense of Self.

Dance of Oneness® is the dance I had been waiting to do all my life. From a young age I had danced, read watched and followed Isadora Duncan, Martha Graham, Joffery Ballet, Margie Gillis, Gabriel Roth and many more than I can name that moved in a way that spoke to me. Dance of Oneness® is the culmination of all that I had been drawn to in the other dance forms which seemed to be missing the main ingredient. Banafsheh has found the missing thread which is the opening to the Beloved, to truly give yourself in movement to the Divine energy that resides and moves through all of us from the Earth and the Heavens. I felt that for the first time in our dancing. It also reintroduced me to my own body, allowed me to accept my imperfections and for the first time in years swim naked in the ocean. All of this and more.
