Dancing With Lights: Movement, Mindfulness, and Human Connection

Humanism affirms that meaning is something we create together, through presence, creativity, and shared experience. This Dancing With Lights workshop is an opportunity to explore joy, connection, and self-expression through the very human tools of movement, rhythm, and play.

In a world that often keeps us in our heads, embodied practices like dance help us reconnect with ourselves and one another. Moving together builds empathy, reduces isolation, and reminds us that wonder and awe do not require belief in the supernatural, only attention, curiosity, and community.

Prepare to be captivated by the fusion of movement and luminosity in this unique, inclusive workshop. Let your body move freely on a guided journey of self-discovery and community play with rhythm, sound, and many, many lights.

Featuring instruction by Certified Group Motion facilitators
with LIVE music by Woz, Allan, Mel, Megan, Nina.
