Open Floor is a lively movement meditation practice that builds muscular and emotional intelligence. It is a dance floor discovery zone where we move and include: good days and tough ones, passion, hesitance, joy, sorrow, births, deaths and everything in between. There are no steps to learn and no way to do it wrong.

Research shows that people who dance grow more flexible, confident, capable of intimacy, and nimble in the face of change. When we move together, we grow communities that care for each other, both on and off the dance floor.
Open Floor is a place where we integrate mindfulness with movement - it fuses these two to create a space where creativity, awareness and vital health meet! We share in the exploration of being alive on every level: physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. We explore different themes stimulating an open mind, and an open heart, moving with and including all aspects of ourselves and our lives. Every class is unique and offers new insight into the variety of ways we embody our humanness; while doing this, we bring awareness to the different ways of relating to all parts of ourselves, each other, community and spirit.
"The mind is like the wind
and the body like the sand:
if you want to know
how the wind is blowing,
you can look at the sand."
