What is Biodanza
Biodanza is the dance of life. It is not free dance because every dance has a purpose, which is made explicit by the facilitators explanations of what dances will be done and why. Then, you dance them as you can, and the music will lead you into the lived-experience of joy, enthusiasm, strength, peacefulness, and inner harmony. |
The Vivencia
Biodanza is about inducing vivencias. Vivencia refers to everything we feel in our day-to-day life. The feelings and emotions that arise when we are with our children, with our loved ones, when we embrace a friend, and when we care for our parents, are vivencias. So vivencias are the feelings and emotions that arise as we live our daily life. |
Vitality and the Other Lines of Vivencia
Vitality is the base of all vivencias. Health is the best aphrodisiac for sexuality. If you have energy then you have desire. If you are ill, depressed, apathetic, then your sexual energy will be weak. But when you are feeling vital then you have plenty of energy and the desire to share that life force. |
