Monthly Dance Circle / Workshops
Dancing with Nadia is a collective and personal dance experience! It’s dancing joyfully in a circle toward your inner light! Exploring your polarities to find unity!
Nadia invites you to join the circle—a symbol of eternity and unity. It represents life and perpetual change.
She introduces you, beyond belief systems, to physical practices drawn from the secular and Sufi cultures of the Maghreb and the Middle East.
During the workshops, participants will practice and integrate various forms of dance drawn from the roots of these physical traditions through a holistic approach to movement, while preserving the essence of their symbolism.
Physical preparation through breathwork, moving meditation, and stretching.
