BIODANZA IN NYC

WEEKLY BIODANZA IN NYC

Join our growing community of Biodanceros in New York City who are forming the pioneering NYC group of Biodanza. Below is the schedule of our classes for the rest of 2010. I hope you can join us for a class to see what the buzz is about.

Conscious Dancer magazine has featured Biodanza twice (www.consciousdancer.com) in issues #10 and #12 and the New York Times has mentioned Biodanza in an article about dancing without the need for booze and drugs. (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/05/fashion/05Sober.html)

Biodanza is a powerful system of authentic movement that provides community and connection in this world where these two elements are sorely missing.

Why not come give it a try?

MESSAGE FROM ROLANDO TORO, creator of the Biodanza system worldwide

The Biodanza Professor

The Biodanza professor formation consists essentially in discovering a mission, transmit the state of grace, show new ways to pursue love and awake the enlightened consciousness.

Frequently people carry a wrong identity. They reduce their existence to the demands of a poor or toxic environment

If men feel insignificant, their actions are insignificant as well.

The inferiority self image creates monsters. Many people don't know they carry inside a divinity

The essential nature of human is the eternal life's celebration. This condition revels an enlighten vision on himself and on the world.

The inner enlightening is not a personal privilege. To be enlightened for himself is not enough. Our light is for enlighten who remain in the darkness, for be able to see their essence and transmit to them the light.

To live, is a very special opportunity, is the opportunity to perceive "the eternal human" and to feel in the body the life's sacredness.

There is inside us something bigger and more marvellous than we think or do

If we don't connect with that eternal depth feeling we are poor mortals full of difficulties, our life turns insignificant.

To acquire that connection with the life's splendour is essential. Actually the enlighten, of which frequently speaks like an exceptional phenomenon full of mystic and occasional connotations, is a natural conditions of all human been. It's about a change of vision of us and the meaning of life. It's a new way of bonding to other people and face the difficulties like part of our alchemic job, accepting abundance and beauty that love generates.

We are much more than we generally think. We are cosmic creatures able to love and create beauty.

If we don't assume the greatness, we become assassins and our life turns insignificant.

To my joy, carry on the highest task our existence can embrace: To give back to the world the life sacredness.

THE LAST JUDGEMENT

THE LAST JUDGEMENT

by Rolando Toro Araneda

Because the end is the beginning
where young and old
contemplate each other
turn your face to the old orchards,
to the parting ship which is drifting away,
with all your childhood in its dark hold
turn towards infinite with an absent face
like the astronaut that has lost its way
time disappears when you look inside
and initiate the resurrection of the dead final
only your heart will assist the final judgement.

"The impossible can happen"Rolando Toro Araneda

ROLANDO TORO ARANEDA 1924 - 2010

It is with such sadness that I write about the peaceful passing of the creator of Biodanza, Rolando Toro Araneda. Born in Concepcion, Chile in 1924, Rolando lived a life of passion and conviction and spent his days traveling the world disseminating the teachings of the biocentric way of life and Biodanza. He will be greatly missed by thousands of Biodanceros worldwide. We will indeed need to learn how to dance without the maestro guiding us along the way. He has left his greatest legacy to humanity in Biodanza and that is here to to stay. May his wish to dance the world into happiness, joy and connectivity come true! "Courage!" he would tell us....

"When you have courage to be faithful to your soul, you are in touch with your interior luminosity and know where to take your next steps in life.” - Rolando Toro
