🎶 THE POWER OF MUSIC 🎶A Biodanza School module with Irene Franco & José Neves from Portugal
Very little can mobilise us as immediately and viscerally as music. It cuts through our defences, ideologies and resistances.
It has the power to unite, fortify, elevate, inspire, haunt, delight and transport us. It can activate or soften our visceral rhythms.
In essence, it moves us.
We invite you to join us for a marvellous weekend of dancing and delving into this field through Biodanza with two dynamic and highly experienced didact teachers from Portugal, Irene Franco and José Neves, directors of the Algarve School of Biodanza. They will guide us through this intensive, enriching weekend with skill and enthusiasm.
✨ WHO IS IT FOR?
You don't need to be enrolled in the Biodanza School to attend, but you DO need experience of Biodanza classes and workshops.
This module is for people who want to deepen their journey of development through Biodanza in a dedicated dance and workshop learning space.

"A Biodanza session is an invitation to participate in the cosmic dance. Our proposition is not only to dance, but also to activate, through specific dances, affective and communication potentials connecting us with ourselves, with our fellow human beings and with nature."
– Professor Rolando Toro Araneda
