## What is Yana Dance Movement?

Yana Movement Dance is a therapeutic and creative practice blending ecstatic dance, 5 Rhythms, and Authentic Movement. It helps you release stuck emotions, reconnect with yourself and your environment, and cultivate the feeling of freedom by expressing your authentic self. It also builds trust in others by allowing yourself to follow their lead.
Through guided solo, group, and partner exercises, you’ll practice responding to your surroundings with presence rather than reacting, deepening connection, self-awareness, and emotional resilience—all within a safe and supportive space for self-expression and growth.
It’s fun, it’s play, sometimes it’s serious play.

# The science

Modern research shows that dance reduces stress, boosts mood through endorphin release, and strengthens the nervous system’s ability to regulate emotions. Moving with music also enhances brain plasticity, improves cardiovascular health, and increases social bonding hormones like oxytocin — making dance not just joyful, but deeply healing for body and mind.

## The Experience

Every gathering is unique — new group, new energy, new flow.

• Sometimes guided, sometimes free.
• Music may move from stillness to wild rhythms, or mix them all.
• Space for play, authenticity, and connection.

Be open, be authentic, and bring yourself 🙂
