QUOTES
"To trance is to move beyond yourself, your ego, your personality
and
to listen to the rhythm of life that is within all of us." Andree Smith
"A human being is just that;Energy, waves, patterns, rhythms
Nothing
more, nothing less
A dance
" Gabrielle Roth
"We all want to belong, to feel that we are part of something greater
than our individual selves. Through interweaving traditional and contemporary
rituals, we wanted to illuminate the spiritual vacuum and deep loss of community
that exists in our modern lives in this time. We hope this DVD will inspire
people to reconnect with that sacred source." Nicole Ma
