“Dance First, think later.  It’s the natural order.” - Samuel Beckett

Unlike any common yoga or dance class, Vibrance is a celebration of life that creates an incredible atmosphere to move within.  Rooted in the age old traditions of singing and dancing, we re-explore the pure states of child-like joy and dig deeper into ourselves through movement meditation.  We transform our fears into courage, our suspicion to fascination and trigger our intuition, our passion and our imagination.
 
Vibrance is personal growth, it’s a healthy mind and spirit, it’s a lifestyle choice, a means of being in touch and in tune with ourselves and those around us.
 
For many, singing may symbolize fear.  Fear of not being perfect, not being good enough, not being willing to truly express ourselves.  We break the boundaries of singing through practicing mantra and singing together.  As we project our voices we regain the strength to express ourselves, to be proud of our voice, to place trust in it.  This is an environment where we don’t have to be musicians, or perfect singers to have the freedom to explore our voice and the great powers it holds.  Singing is medicine.  Dance is medicine.  Vibrance is good medicine!
 
Dance is exercise for body, mind and spirit.  We connect with the earth as we stomp our feet, we ground ourselves, and we let the energy received flow through us.  This is not choreography, your dance is your own and as you move through your dance you open the eight chakras, shake your 206 bones and 660 muscles.  With each step, jump, shake and twist we move closer and closer to a deeply profound liberation.
