Dance of Directions: A Cherokee Dance

The Dance of Directions is a slow-moving prayer to the earth and sky that clears the energetic pathways within the body to resonate with the land and the sacred Directions. It is a self-care practice of heart and intention that brings harmony to the body-mind and to the earth. It is nondenominational and was gifted to non native people through the Ywahoo Family Lineage of the Tsalagi (Cherokee) Nation. In this workshop, the participant learns the movements in the Dance of Directions and their meaning. No dance experience is necessary but should have good balance and moderate exercise ability, and for those who are balance or gait challenged, one can still receive benefits from doing the movements in a chair.
