Spring Equinox Dance Ceremony
with Heather Munro Pierce
Saturday March 23rd
7-9:15pm
Hillside Urban Sanctuary, El Cerrito, CA

The Equinoxes (there is one in the fall and one in the spring) mark the moment when the length of day and night are equal in both the northern and southern hemispheres. They are potent times to connect with and honor the cycles of nature, and play with the dance of light and dark in our lives.
We invite you to consciously mark the turning of the seasons~
and the dance of light and dark in your life.
Join us and dance to acknowledge these challenging times AND celebrate all that is wonder-full around you and within you!
Bring your intentions, prayers and move what you need to move~
Spaciously facilitated~
Beginner and experienced dancers welcome~
How and if you move is up to you~
Stillness, journaling, rest, meditation, stretching all welcome~
Think of this as a deep self-care ritual~

What Women Are Saying
About the Temple Dancing Experience:
"As I danced, goddesses whispered in my ears… filling my skin with self-knowing… reminding me who I am from the outside in, and from the inside out." ~Karen
"When I dance in the temple, I notice I am more embodied in my everyday - at work, at home, on the hiking trail - more likely to shake it off and out, to stretch, to walk tall, to make eye contact... it nourishes my inner life and offers a place to connect." ~Mona
"I go into this inner cocoon of rhythm and I dance whatever needs to be expressed without caring about how I must look. This is how I want to show up in the world - courageously expressing what needs to be expressed without worrying about what will people think." ~NicoleContact Us
