We will be celebrating Gautama Buddha, which literally translates to "Awakened One".
Originally, the theme for this Ritual Dance was going to be "You are a God". This did not resonate with me as I do not believe in putting something/someone 'higher' or 'lower', nor do I want to label others.
The teachings from Buddha also express to awaken signifies attaining surpeme wisdom, not becoming a 'god' or 'diving being'.
If then 'You are God' can be transformed to 'becoming godly' and godly is being in a state of 'Pure Presence', then we strip the label, the hierarchy, and simply awaken our full selves by being fully present. The core of the energy in us, the spirit that guides us, the intuition we follow...
A ๐บ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐จ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.
So, we will celebrate you, all of you, all of us, being in Pure Presence during the Ritual Dance.

Ritual Dance is a dance experience where we come together in silence. From the silence we feel into ourselves, make eye contact with another dancer, show ourselves & recognize the other. The music is the invitation to go into spontaneous, free dance.
The concept of Ritual Dance is inspired by Ecstatic Dance and Ritual Play. As we only use body language & sound, we leave words behind. We dance barefoot, only drink water and let ourselves be carried away by the natural flow. There is a demarcated space (the field) and demarcated time (the music), in which we step into the unknown, to authentically follow our impulses in tune with the other.
