Join us in a circle of women to explore the Sephirot- the Kabbalistic tree of life- in our bodies and in our lives. We dance, share, sing and learn together as we celebrate the counting of the Omer- the seven weeks between Passover/liberation and Shavuot/revelation. In this sacred dance space, we come into our bodies, using conscious dance practice to explore each sephira. We integrate our dance experience with drawing and/or writing at the end of each evening. We draw on teachings from the mystical tradition to deepen our Jewish spiritual practice in community and to explore the essence of each Sephira on all levels of being. Each week we focus on one of the Seven Sephirot as designated by the Counting of the Omer in the tradition of the Jewish mystics: chesed (lovingkindness), gevurah (strength, judgment, limits), tiferet (beauty, harmony), netzach (perseverance, endurance), hod (humility, gratitude), yesod (foundation, creativity, sexuality), malchut (divine manifestation here on earth), and Shavuot (integration, culmination, revelation). $175-$245 sliding scale for the series. Work-study spaces are available. Space is limited. Pre-registration for the whole series is required.
