Dance Teacher Magazine

"Dance is a language that reunites the body, mind and soul,"
writes Iris Stewart, author of Sacred Woman, Sacred Dance:
Awakening Spirituality Through Movement and Ritual. In this new book, Stewart traces women's ways of expressing the divine, in sacred circles, birth rituals, ecstatic dances and dances of loss and grief. Stewart explains how dance became excluded from worship and how once again it is being integrated into spiritual practices. She also provides resources for further instruction in sacred dance.
