Long Dance

THE DRUM IS CALLING

WHERE:

Extreme MG - Sitio Caminho do Sol

WHEN:

NOVEMBER 26 and 27 - 2022

"When we dance in a ceremony we are expanding whatever principle we are dancing at that moment. Dances give us the ability to break self-imposed limitations and harmonize with Hearing, Seeing and Mindfulness"

Joseph Rael (Beautiful Painted Arrow)

Since 1980, the Long Dance (inspired by Joseph Rael, "Beautiful Painted Arrow", brings together people willing to look at their challenges as opportunities for growth rather than obstacles in the way. Symbols of the breath that sweeps away the darkness, the dancers circulate around the Medicine Wheel , bringing from the vast and infinite Self (outside the circle), inspiration and new ideas to reassess your beliefs, values and attitudes (inside the circle).

 

Invite your friend, your husband, your wife, your children (over 18) cousins and parents. Dancing as a family, and with our loved ones that we are going to change each one of us to eventually change our planet that needs it so much right now.

We need to get back to truth, trust, harmony and love. It seems like such a simple thing, but this year each dance was stronger and stronger. Help us to bring more and more people to dance this liberating retreat/ceremony!!!

 

Only the Great Spirit knows what a miracle we could achieve inside and outside of ourselves.
