Kundalini Dance is a unique form of ecstatic dance developed and taught by Leyolah Antara Dekanic world-wide over the past 11 years. Kundalini Dance is a practice that is deeply transformational and totally ecstatic, the practice rejuvenates the body, clears old stagnant emotional energy, brings insight and clarity into limiting beliefs and supports the awakening and integration of higher consciousness. Kundalini Dance is a revolutionary new method for self-healing and personal awakening.

What is Kundalini? Kundalini is an innate inner energy in every human being, it sits in the sacrum, at the base of the spine, unless cultivated remains dormant. Kundalini is prana, essential life-force in a highly potent form. The ancient Indian yogic mystics the Siddhis referred to Kundalini as Shakti, the divine feminine energy within us, which when cultivated was the key to self-realization, health and longevity. Kundalini clears negativity and awakens higher consciousness. Antara inspires dancers to generate their kundalini, through a combination of rhythmic energy breathing and movement and utilize it to purify the body mind, and move into natural states of ecstasy.

"The sacred space created by Antara and her team supported me to reach such depth, I felt like I could truly feel and express every emotion that arose without judgement. The sensation of bringing the energy through every chakra was such an amazing experience and so freeing. Over the period of the course, a huge emotional release had taken place, and the mental clarity was phenomenal. The completion of the course had a truly life changing affect, as I had gained the inner strength to make some major life changing decisions for myself and my family."

Enter Into Body-Mind Consciousness
One of the underlying principles of the Kundalini Dance work is that the mind, body and spirit are interconnected. Thought patterns and emotions are initiated and stored not only in our brains, but also within the cells of our bodies our organs and our energy fields.

Within our cells we hold the imprints of all that we have ever experienced in this life. Unexpressed or unintegrated experiences carry strong mental and emotional energy that can become locked in the body as tension, resistance and body armoring.

Emotional Healing
Emotions are like water, they need to be expressed when they are allowed to flow through the light pathways of our energy system, they automatically brings balance and harmony. An emotion that is repressed or denied stagnates the life force and blocks our energy system, impeding the flow of life force into the various body-systems and organs causing gradual deterioration and eventually disease. This is why our emotions are so connected to our health. The more you clear your body-mind system of dense emotional energies the more universal energy can flow in.

On a physical level, that means more life force energy can flow into the organs and that creates more health and vitality. On a spiritual and emotional level that means freeing your self of the past and feeling lighter, becoming more present, more positive in the now.

When you let go to the flow of kundalini rising within you, breath with it and surrender to your dance, it will clear old stagnant emotional energy out of the body and the chakra system and free you into the ecstatic aliveness of being totally present with what is in the now.

Dance-movement, breath and sound are powerful ways to bring a lot of energy into the body and clear stagnant emotional energy. Trust that your body knows what it needs to do to free itself. Moving spontaneously in ways you have never moved before allows the freeing of tight and rigid areas of emotional body holding. Sound can also carry emotional imprints out of your cells and energy field. Feelings do not have to be verbally expressed to be released but can be simply sounded out.

Kundalini Dance is not therapy it is not a cathartic explosion where one gets lost in the emotions of the past, it is simply an experience of emotional energy clearing, very naturally and effortlessly through the out breath, through the movement, through spontaneous sound. One doesn't even need to fully intellectualize what is being cleared; it is simply a purification that brings lightness into the body. Emotional clearing and Integration can take place by allowing feelings to arise with acceptance, feeling and observing Ð yet not identifying with them. By dancing as the witness and unconditionally accepting what arises you can transform your pain into love.

Kundalini Dance requires you to drop your socially acceptable mask and embrace all of you, the light and the dark and give it all up to the dance. We accept ourselves totally as we are and then the journey of transformation becomes an ecstatic celebration.

Pranic Breathing
Central to the Kundalini Dance practice is the art of Pranic Breathing which once mastered is the key to physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. Prana is the Sanskrit term for life force, the vital energy that creates continuous life. Pranic Breathing is the key to tapping into this vital essence and utilizing it for physical rejuvenation and mental and emotional transformation. Pranic Breathing directs both earth energy and universal energy up and down the central energy channel, and we direct it out through the specific chakra we are activating or purifying. Kundalini can be accessed through contacting the earth's energy and raising it up through you. (The cd/booklet "Breathe" contains a detailed section on the art of pranic breathing)

The Chakras
As kundalini rises she activates and purifies the chakras into functioning at full potentiality. The Kundalini dance work is based around the universal map of the seven chakras, the seven main centers of energy and consciousness in the body. The Chakras touch deeply into the core of whom we are, how we perceive and express ourselves in the world. Issues relating to survival, relationship, sexuality, personal power, career, life-purpose, creativity, communication and spiritual dimensions are all expressed through the chakras.

Physiologically each chakra links the energy body with the physical body, each chakra has the vital role of channeling universal energy into the vital organs and the specific body systems that it governs. For example the heart chakra channels life-force into the physical heart, lungs and the respiratory system as a whole, when we breathe into the heart chakra we stimulate the thymus gland, which is in charge of the immune system.

Working with the chakras through rhythmic pranic breath and dance movement expression helps to balance the chakra system as a whole.

Becoming Your Own Inner Healer
Kundalini Dance is a contemporary personal cultivation practice, drawing on ancient ways and wisdom, designed for the accelerated times we live in. Once you remember how to plug in, activate and clear your own body mind system, it is something that comes very naturally, we all have an energy body and it is our birthright to remember how to work with it, and empower ourselves to take our physical, mental, spiritual and emotional health into our own hands. Any body can do this practice; every body was born to dance. This is an invitation for you to come and Kundalini Dance, and experience the ecstasy, pure joy and radiant health that come with a clear energy channel.
