The Center Will Hold: Open Floor Dance Workshop
Where do you end, and others begin? Where do you go when you move away from pain? What are you vulnerable to? Borrowing from Brené Brown, who states in Atlas of the Heart “The center will hold. I believe that in the midst of struggle, the center will hold if, and only if, we can feel the edges.”
Come explore your sense of center and find and feel your edges using the mindful movement, conscious dance practice of Open Floor International. What we practice on the dance floor cultivates awareness and insight that informs how we move through life off the dance floor.
