RITUAL MOVEMENT ARTS: (RMA)

Is an innovative blend of Hatha Yoga and Tribal Fusion Belly Dance

Focus on dancing from the core. Open the body with yogic principles to deepen your connection to your dance. Play with presence, fluidity and slinky theatrical moves.  Explore intricate mudras, and choreography while activating the creative soul seat of each individual’s personal transformative power. Tune in with your inner goddess and the art of storytelling through the eyes, hips, & heart. Connect to one’s own essence and cultivate enjoyment of the body in motion while sharing in a community of sisterhood through RMA practices.

Fusion

Aradia’s mission in the foundation of the Ritual Movement Arts technique is the accessing of ancient power through archetypal embodiment. Since 2008, Ritual Movement Arts founder and instructor, Aradia Sunseri, has developed a blend of techniques that fuse creative self-expression, core strength, sensuality, and sacred movement. Dance has always been a way to access ecstasy and union with the universe, and we can honor the feminine divine through sacred dance and intentional movement.

Belly

Aradia offers unique choreography with an emphasis on expressing stories and emotion through healing & magic of the storytelling power of sacred dance.

With focus on

~Inner yoga’s

-Isolations, drills, layering

Philosophy

Ritual Movement Art focuses on meditation and creative self-expression, which embodies a blend of classical hatha yoga. The yogic practice enables participants to dive deeper into their dance and gain an overall sense of peace. Intentional movement gives us a vehicle to move out of our heads and into hearts and bodies. We can then experience our authentic feelings: both our dark and light selves. This enables practitioners to attain awareness and inner stillness in motion.

Aradia honors the awareness and divine nature of the lineages that have carried these teachings & practices from indigenous cultures all around the world.
