Stillness and action co-create each other. The spiritual journey is a love dance in the space within and between. To be one, at peace, and at home, with the cosmic dance is to be free. Though we are already free, we forget. Dancing Freedom practices shine light into the cellular truth of wholeness. We travel somatic, ecstatic and shamanic currents HOME.  We arrive, again and again, at cellular/genetic wholeness, in every one of our multi-dimensional bodies.  In being and becoming this freedom in time, space and experience, we come to know who we already are.

Freedom, already known by the Spirit, is revealed to our bodies and our psyche one moment, one act, one breath, one dance, at a time. The knowledge of Freedom is a body-based experience.  It strengthens as out practice deepens. With the Body as the conduit, the Infinite manifests this vast, extraordinary dance called life. Through practice, states based experience grounds into traits of being.  Therefore, to dance consciously as individuals, as community, as manifestations of the divine is to embody Freedom: to be and become what we are already. As freedom activates through us, it reflects back out into the world through our dancing, our breathing, our creating, our relating and our NOW being-ness.

Because it is an active process, engaging body, mind, emotions and the relational field in real time and space, DANCING FREEDOM bridges the space of "practice" with the moment to moment dance of life.  Our dances reveal the non-separation between body, soul and spirit and give us the opportunity to be Spirit as body.  The practice integrates self care, emotional clearing and and soul-empowerment with the dance of Union with the Divine. We work and play with functional physical, emotional and communication tools to empower PeaceBody: the body we live in when human, animal and spirit live comfortably together inside our skins. By welcoming all of the Selves: the personal and the transpersonal, the animal and angel, the sacred and the profane, the physical and the energetic, and the many, many aspects of psyche and mind, we enter into the Dance of SELF. In this dance, the Spirit within us (Self) has space to flower and become the primary animating principle of our lives. Honoring all and getting to know and love our cell-ves, we relax into a larger sense of beingess and are empowered as graceful participants in the unfolding of NOW of our lives.

Dancing Freedom Practices work with present tense prayer. In this modality of prayer Body, Heart and Mind are all invited to play together in unison to resonate the only prayer that really works: the one that already IS. This way of Praying is not new, it is held in most of the ecstatic wisdom paths of the ages including the Sufi Path of Ecstatic Union. This way is of praying in the present tense, AS THOUGH WHAT WE ARE PRAYING IS ALREADY HAPPENING, is what Gregg Bradden calls "The Lost Language of Prayer."  We redidicate to this true language of prayer in our dancing.

Additionally, Dancing Freedom Practices are informed by the Wisdom Paths of Vedic Yoga, the Essene Way, The Path of Reiki, Tantra, Somatics, Dance, Chi Kung, Zen, Native American Shamanism and the teachings of contemporary masters Eckart Tolle, Dan Winters, Gregg Bradden and Gabriel Cousens.

Dancing Freedom invites the Seven Fold Peace:

• Peace in Body
• Peace in Heart
• Peace in Mind
• Peace in Family
• Peace in Community
• Peace in Ecology
• Peace with the Infinite
  

These seven spheres of activation invite us to BE THE CHANGE WE WISH TO SEE, to Ground and Manifest a new way of being.  And to live here on Earth in ways which are sustainable, loving and joyous. When we dance freedom and only freedom, we invite unity in diversity, responsibility, connectivity and gratitude. The consciousness of these seven spheres guides us ethically as we become PeaceBody and supports us in manifesting personal and collective purpose in harmony with all that is.

The practices offered by Samantha Sweetwater and other Dancing Freedom practitioners give individuals and communities the opportunity to integrate and activate these Seven Layers of Wholeness. We empower love, soul, freedom and authenticity.  We inspire sacred play, work, meditation and relationship as Shambala Warriors, Dharma Servants and Lovers of Life.  We stand for sovereignty, unity in diversity and peace.  The intention is Dancing Freedom: all being participating joyously as unique, enlightened individuals in singular and collective awakening.

AND SO IT IS.
