An open, harmonious and lively structure

Each week offers a complete and balanced immersion into the world of Sufi dance. The main themes—body preparation, rotation practice, poetic listening, rituals, and sharing time—are addressed daily, with subtle variations in approach to enrich the experience while maintaining continuity of spirit and method.

THE PROGRAM

Weekly a complete immersion and balanced

The program is designed so that each week is self-contained: there is no hierarchical progression or required level. This allows everyone to join the training during the week of their choice, without feeling like they're "missing" a step.
