Circle Dance. Luv it.  The energy and vitality generated in such an assembly would have to be seen to be believed. It would be nice to join such a group here in the SE.

It's my wife's set up. She has a good group of people who come and dance on a regular basis and the day long workshops are usually good fun. I am the cook, bottle washer, car park attendant and web builder. |

He treads on enough peoples' toes as it is !
But perhaps he would attend if you could lend him a suitable frock

He has enough "suitable frocks" of his own, have you seen him cleaning out the pond...! |

Haven't seen him lately on account of that amazing cloak a friend made for him -- sort of crushed velvet effect , disappears in the rushes . Took pics but no figure visible .
What is this circle-dancing anyway ? I have heard that it is some sort of pagan stuff , not unlike yoga
|
| quarryman |
It might be a bit Pagan but not as much as Yoga or homoeopathy !

I was only joking , of course , and can't really speak for the perception of Circle Dancing but can tell you that Yoga was viewed as a black art by a good few people around here when MOH started to teach it 4 yrs ago . Yes , there is a deep philosophy behind it if anyone wants to look into that aspect but it is NOT a religion and in IMHO need be in no conflict with any of them . Just a very good way of getting body and mind into a healthy state if that is what you wish to do . Same as the dancing methinks . Your website states your own perspective very simply and nicely and I cannot see anything remotely contentious about it . Wish I could participate myself but I really do have 2 left feet !
Good luck |
