About this Event
Dance Medicine Family!
Join us for this very special experience. Mose Cacao Dance is such an incredible, immersive community journey. Let's ride the full spectrum waves into shared bliss together!
Sunday, May 18th at Lithuanian Music Hall Association in Port Richmond/Kensington area.
Come together for an evening of cacao ceremony, embodied journeying, music, and magic!
This event is all about connecting with our community, grounding ourselves through dance, sound, and shared experiences, and celebrating the beautiful gifts we each bring to the circle. And guess what, we will be back at our old stomping grounds in the Lithuanian Music Hall!
A reunion for the books.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welcome to the transformative realm of Cacao Dance - led by Mose.
As you step onto the dance floor, embrace the intentional container that encourages silence, creating a sacred space for a deep and immersive journey.
The ceremony preceding the dance is led by the beautiful Bruna Bortolato alongside Mose, invoking intention, gratitude, and prayer. This ceremonial prelude lays the groundwork for a profound and spiritually charged dance experience, featuring internationally renowned vocalist Franko Heke.
Cacao Dance is more than just movement; it's a conscious exploration to connect with oneself and community.
The dance unfolds with a deliberate arc, starting slow and spacious, allowing participants to attune to the music and let their bodies intuitively guide their movements.
The overarching goal is to transcend the mental chatter, diving deep into the heart, embodying the emotions alive in the present moment.
The dance reaches a climactic peak, pulsating with full-power energy before gracefully winding down to a slower, softer pace for integration.
This alcohol-free container draws inspiration from ancient shamanic practices of entering trance, offering a space for profound insight and personal evolution.
The intention is clear: to foster a connection with oneself, community, nature, and spirit in support of the greater collective evolution. As you immerse yourself in the rhythms and energies of Cacao Dance, anticipate not only a dance but a transformative experience, leaving you with insights to integrate into your life's journey.
