Ecstatic Ritual in Santa Monica
Delve into peaceful flow and ecstatic movement. This is the sema, or "pure listening", the ancient practice of the Sufi masters Rumi and Shams.
Sema is a moving meditation, a way to dissolve the illusion of separateness our thinking creates, into Oneness ... the One Presence from which all arises.
In this class, you come to move with your whole body. We begin with a warm-up based in yoga and tai chi, followed by a fine-tuning: correct alignment, a fluid spine and sensing our chakras, allowing a flow of light/chi in our body. We then engage in sema in its
various manifestations: Whirling, Reverential Bowing, Zikr (chanting), Shaking and Waves.
Soak in the joy of celebration!
Open to All. Dress comfortably and bring SOFT SHOES or SOCKS.
