HOLY ROOM

I want to know every inch
of this earth as an altar—
every walk, a pilgrimage.
Every step, a step
from holy to holy

to holy.

ROSEMERRY WAHTOLA TROMMER
from her poem ’Sacred Ground’

What if you and I begin to practice living our lives as if everything is sacred; a journey, where inside every movement is an ancient and silent prayer waiting to be released; where inside every breath is the beginning of a rare and unique song yearning to be expressed; where trapped inside every moment is a hidden or forbidden shape asking to be revealed and revered; where inside every dance you create altars on the path with each step, which alters the steps for those who will follow. This is the co-creation of our HOLY ROOM.

We begin with the sanctuary of self, the body as our church, where we open an intimate search to discover and mend our gifts and hurts. We expand our communion to include one other, a dance of divine dialogue, where each voice is listened to and spoken through movement, shape, gesture and pause. We widen our lens to include the community, where a deep sense of belonging is tended and nurtured, and diversity is respected and reclaimed. We complete our journey as we rest in the arms of ritual, a portal to help us find our way from the dance floor to the world floor of our every day lives.

Your presence is requested in this  HOLY ROOM.
