Flagging - Meditative Art Form (& A Great Workout Too!) 5.00 5.009

So what exactly is flag dancing or "flagging?"

It’s a high-energy dance form where colorful flags are spun in patterns with the body as extensions of the music. Experienced flaggers can create almost dream-like effects by artistically mixing technical skill, liquid-like movements, and amazing athletic intensity. Throw in the strobes and black lights of a nightclub, set the whole thing to a good dance beat, and the results can be fantastically surreal. Flag dancing draws its inspiration from Japanese fan dancing and Polynesian poi dancing (think Hawaiian fire twirlers), and this dazzling style of dance has begun to gain widespread popularity; from Boston to Brazil , from Texas to Thailand . It's even found its way into church organizations where it is called, "Worship Flagging".

Whatever the origins, flagging is a great way to MEDITATE - a moving meditation. The rhythmic movements calm and relax you. It's also a great workout, especially for the arms and the core of the body. Join us and give it a try - it's fun!
