Sweat Your Prayers with Kiaora Fox!

“The more you dance, the more you sweat. The more you sweat, the more you pray. The more you pray, the closer you come to ecstasy. " ~ Gabrielle Roth ~ Kiaora Fox is our Minister of Music this Sunday! She says, “I love seeing dancers on any floor in fullness of expression. My music is an offering to assist each dancer to ground, embody and renew. Sensual, rhythmic, entrancing, I seek the sounds that feel alive and soulful and encourage the dancers to move big and small, soft and hard; to embody a range of polarities and become their most dynamic self. I approach every ecstatic dance floor like a 5Rhythms Sweat Your Prayers™ offering. In many ways, Sweat Your Prayers initiated our modern ecstatic dance movement. Gabrielle Roth, the founder of the 5Rhythms movement meditation practice, created Sweat Your Prayers as an opportunity to bring our individual 5R practice to dance with intention, in community, and with relatively little formal facilitation. I use the 5Rhythms map: Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness to guide us through the energy waves that are innate in everything that exists. Gabrielle studied life and found that embodying these 5 Rhythms turns dancing into medicine, it is a path back to our truth and our connection to our soul, to be here and now in our bodies. I invite you to come Sweat Your Prayers with me this Sunday morning!"
