What is Shakti Dance®?
the Graceful Journey of Shakti Dance®
Shakti Dance®, the yoga of dance, is a conscious and devotional dance that harmoniously weaves together diverse movement styles, rhythms, yogic techniques and energy work. This synthesis harmonizes the triad of body, mind, and energy, unfolding an expanded state of consciousness that resonates within.

Shakti Dance® draws its essence from the wisdom of Kundalini Yoga and Yogic Philosophy, channeling their teachings into transformative phases that nurture both the inner and outer self. From gentle stretches and dynamic standing exercises to the liberating realm of free dance, relaxation, and meditation, Shakti Dance® offers a holistic journey:
Tuning-In: A harmonious beginning that tunes you inwards, guided by mantras and mudras, opening your connection to inner wisdom.
Shakti Flowing Asanas: Inviting energy to course freely through your channels, as synchronized breath and flowing stretches create a fluid, rhythmic harmony.
Standing Exercises: Uniting dance movements with the rhythm of breath, expanding your energy and aura.
Free Dance: A liberating space for soulful expression, a canvas for your unique creativity and energy.
Relaxation: A moment to release tension, allowing the energy to gently recalibrate.
Mantra Choreography: Meditative choreography to mantra music, uniting mantra meaning and movement to align energy within the group field.
Silent Meditation: Nurturing the quietude of the mind, as it returns to the essence of your being.
Closing: Safeguarding the aura with mantras and mudras.
In Shakti Dance® workshops and classes, we explore a variety of themes and experiences. From balancing the mind and energies to delving deeper into aspects of our spiritual nature like heart consciousness, silence, anahat, and wild feminine power, every session is a unique journey.
