The Origins of DanceLahi 

DanceLahi™ was birthed in 1975 in the dance studios of the renowned California Institute of the Arts as I began unraveling my extensive traditional and innovative professional modern dance training and my training in Cecchetti technique as well as Russian ballet.  

I had been meditating since 1968 and was deeply pursuing the essence and technique of the original modern dance masters of the early and mid-20th century.

While in the studio one day I experienced a profound opening in my body and an exuberant passion to understand how movement is connected to the Source within me (us) through learning how to consciously connect to the presence of Source energy, God, and the universe through my (our) body.

Technique and improvisation were integrated over the next decades after also studying world dance, mime, and a very deep dive into classical dance with the great ballet Russian dance master Mia Slavenska who was in the Ballet Russe De Monte Carlo. The powerful influence of working directly with and being trained by Bella Lewitzky, Jose Limon, Martha Graham, Merce Cunningham, and Alvin Ailey had a significant impact on my dance and more importantly my life.

In my desire to understand how soul and the body interconnected, I was trained in more than 20 forms of innovative and leading edge healing arts including deep body-centered healing as well as subtle energy that flowed through and around the human body which as the universal pulse was literally everywhere. I became a mother of two girls, studied acting in Los Angeles, and was mentored by several Sacred Medicine Holders and Healers.

As I began to do deep inner emotional healing in the 1980’s, I became more in touch with how Universal Source moved in my BEing. I began to integrate movement and energy  and emotional healing in my personal inner work and my rapidly expanding professional healing and coaching practice with clients.

I discovered universal themes and alignments that became the center point of my healing work with clients and my on-stage performance work.  

I lived intimately and devotedly in the currents of spiritual transformation and what that truly means.

FAQ

How is DanceLahi different than classical dance trainings?

Your outer form is created through the alignment and meeting points of your energy system with the natural energetics of the cosmic light within you. You will be guided into the core channels of life and cosmic energies in and around your spine, that are discovered in ballet, and certain Kriya and higher Kundalini practices.

How is DanceLahi different than modern and contemporary dance trainings?

You will begin by making the conscious connection into your soul as your body and mind are unified. Your movements are executed and expressed from discovering BEing ONE within your Self and igniting the core light within you. You will experience familiar overlapping themes as you would with modern dance that work with flow, release, balance, alignment, expansion, and contraction and more.

How does DanceLahi fill a void in dance movement training?

You are guided to “perform” movement from a surrendered inner and outer place where your physical actions are always connected to your relationship with the light and dark within you, and then into the transcendence of your consciousness into ONEness. Your physical body is an extension of the depth, power, and love experienced through entry into the divine within you while you execute healthy use of your body, and correct core and muscular engagement.

How does DanceLahi facilitate internal growth and spirituality?

You will feel connected in an authentic and genuine way to step through pre-set ideas and holding patterns in your body to open into the full spiritual spectrum of consciousness within you. Your experience becomes integrated-awakened meditation in action and more, as you break through and break free of your programming into liberated technically and fully expressed dance.
