The 5 Mythosomatic Dances
"EMPATHOS"
Wednesday Evenings, 5:30pm—6:45pm MST USA
5 consecutive Wednesday evenings, beginning Wednesday, March 22nd
"The 5 Mythosomatic Dances" focuses on one of the 5 Mythosomatic Dances; the current dance, in association with the theme, Power & Emotion, is: "Empathos." These dances, inspired by Post-Daoist ideas on the capability of feeling, represent diverse themes of ontological belonging. These Mythosomatic expressions collapse the distinction between emotion and awareness, prayer and art, body and nature. This class will be taught in a progressional fashion, with each class building on the former. Though enrollment is open to any student, this is a Deep Study class designed for students participating in the Foundations Class on Saturdays who are particularly dedicated to the personal embodiment of these Mythosomatic dances.
