Sacred: dedicated or devoted exclusively to a single use, purpose or person.*American Heritage dictionary
Sacred is a special word in the English language. It is descended from the Latin word sacrum, which referred to the gods or anything within their power. It also refers to the base of your spine, those beautiful fused bones that turn in, creating a hand that supports you from underneath and behind. Amazing… the human body… a sacred vessel of life.
In Nia, we use the word ‘sacred’ when we talk about our lives, our body, our breath, our voice… devoted to us, our health, our well-being. We are Sacred Athletes.
Our body is also our sanctuary, our oldest friend, a deep and sacred connection that unites our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual ‘selves’ into one place… one Sanctuary.
Every year, I save a very special routine for this season. A sacred time of year to celebrate the old, the new, family and friends. The routine? Sanctuary.
Sanctuary is a old routine originally choreographed by Nia founder Debbie Rosas. Through the many years of teaching it, I have made it my own. My favorite way to teach Sanctuary is by incorporating the sacred silence of my voice, listening for the sacred sound of my breath, the music, and my fellow dancers of life. I am adding candlelight this year, (great for 6:45am!) and with the pending rain at the end of the week, the classes will be extra special.
Join me as we celebrate this sacred season with Sanctuary. I will be teaching this until Christmas Eve. As many of you know, every time the dance is different. We will dance with the triad Sacred Body, Sacred Sound, Sacred Silence.
I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude and appreciation for you and the abundance of your spirit. We are an amazing community of friends, healers, lovers of life and givers of light. You have enriched my life in so many ways and I am forever blessed. Thank you!
