Circle Dance with Daisy ~ Resuming late fall or winter 2024
Wednesdays at 10:30 am *No Cost. Donation only.
Circle Dance includes traditional dances from many cultures and modern choreographies using similar steps to music from around the world. Dances are usually formed from a short pattern which is then repeated for the duration of the dance, giving the dancer the opportunity to sink into the music. In the latter part of the 20th century, Circle Dance found a home in Findhorn, Scotland where it blossomed and continued to spread, now being enjoyed world-wide.
All dances are taught, no partner or experience needed. Dances range from fast and joyous, to slow and meditative, and can be modified to accommodate anyone’s physical ability. All are welcome.
*No cost. Suggested donation of $10, but not necessary.
We look forward to seeing you!
