RANA GORGANI
Animated by Persian poetry and music, practice the mystical rotating dance of whirling dervishes.
This workshop open to all is based on the Sufi experience through the dance of whirling. The course begins with a sound meditation offering a better understanding of Sama (spiritual hearing). The first part of the work unifies three essential elements of the spinning: the body, space and time. Through a selection of Sufi poems offered to participants, you will approach sacred songs and the symbolism of gestures related to mystical poetry. Finally, after studying the technique of spiral movement, everyone will experience in music meditative intoxication through free Samâ.
