Dancing your path…
When moving your awareness down into your body is challenging and sitting still to meditate only creates more overthinking, Chakradance can help you to move inwards by moving your body. On one level, it can be experienced as a joyful affirmation of who you truly are. At a deeper level, it is also about healing and balance.
In a Chakradance workshop, Elaine creates, and continues to hold, sacred space for participants to safely relax and move into their inner worlds.
In a darkened room, lit only by candle-light, you move to specially composed music that’s created to resonate with the vibrations of each of your major energy centres. There are no steps to learn, you use your own spontaneous movement. Dancing with your eyes closed and your attention focussed inwards, Chakradance is about making a connection with your inner world – the world of your imagination, feelings, intuition, and senses.
It can be like a waking dream – you dance up forgotten parts of yourself and can release memories stored in your muscles. The experiences are deeply personal and reflect your own nature and history, and at the same time tap into the collective heights and depths of human experience.
Drawing on the wisdom of Jungian Psychology, Chakradance is a practice for healing and self-discovery. Each time you dance, you may have different insights and feelings. Using the creation of your personal ‘mandala art’ is a way of anchoring your experiences back into your conscious world.
Beautiful and evocative music is at the heart of Chakradance. Each energy centre has its own unique body of evocative music, soundscapes and tones that resonate to their specific vibrational frequencies.
When you surrender to the music of each chakra, you dance from the inside out and find yourself awakening and healing ancient hurts, opening up to put yourself in touch with the sacred within you – helping you reconnect with your soul, unique and beautiful.
Dancing the seven chakras is like taking a journey into different worlds, different aspects of yourself, each with their own lessons, meanings, and stories. As a practice, it helps you to feel more balanced, more joyful, and connected.
Elaine facilitates Chakradance workshops for small groups. Regular weekly and monthly workshops are usually held in Tralee. Elaine also travels to facilitate Chakradance workshops at wellness Festivals or for particular groups of friends/families or in schools. Individual one-to-one Chakradance workshops are also available by appointment.
