Contemplative Dance Course
Weekend Workshops
NOVEMBER 27 TO 29, 2026
CONTEMPLATIVE DANCE COURSE. ST JOHN OF THE CROSS
Marking the dual anniversary of St. John of the Cross—celebrating both his canonization and his recognition as a Doctor of the Church—we will explore his work through contemplative dance. This is a time for retreat and deepening our understanding, evoking various stages of the spiritual journey.
The course will include brief theoretical sessions, though the primary focus will be the experience of contemplative dance itself.
We will review the dances at a measured pace so that participants can recall them once back home.
Please bring comfortable clothing and socks.
It is recommended to bring a white shirt (or similar garment) for Sunday.
FEBRUARY 12 TO 14, 2027
CONTEMPLATIVE DANCE COURSE: CREATION
Alongside learning specific contemplative dances, we will work on attuning the body to foster a deeper sense of listening and expression, potentially leading to spontaneous, prayerful dance. To this end, we will explore various parts of the body, discovering it as a pathway to God.
Theoretical and practical resources for adaptation and choreography creation will be provided.
Please bring comfortable clothing and socks.
