Dance the Sacred Geometry of the Rose: Move in Patterns that Unlock Revelatory Wisdom, Inner Alignment, & Multidimensional Awareness
A FREE Online Event with Spiritual Teacher, Award-Winning Author, Sacred Dancer, and Founder of Dance of Oneness®, Banafsheh Sayyad
Saturday, June 13 | 10AM-11AM Pacific Time
What if your body holds an ancient map to awakening?
Beneath the visible world lies an invisible architecture of sacred patterns that shape consciousness, influence reality, and guide the unfolding of our lives. Across mystical traditions, sacred geometry has been revered as a gateway to higher awareness, healing, and profound spiritual revelation.
In this transformative free online event, spiritual teacher, award-winning author, sacred dancer, Banafsheh Sayyad, invites you into the mystical realm of sacred dance, where movement becomes prayer, the body becomes a living temple, and the soul awakens to its deepest wisdom.
Through guided movement, mystical poetry, and the spiraling geometry of the rose, you’ll experience how sacred dance can unlock expanded states of awareness, restore inner harmony, and reconnect you with the divine intelligence already living within you.
At a time when so many feel overwhelmed, disconnected, and fragmented, Banafsheh offers a powerful path home—one that honors the body not as something to transcend, but as a sacred vessel for revelation, healing, beauty, and love.
During this experiential event, you’ll discover:
- How sacred geometry influences consciousness and shapes your inner and outer reality
- The hidden energetic pathways that connect body, heart, soul, and spirit
- Why movement has been used throughout history as a gateway to mystical states and spiritual awakening
- How sacred dance can cultivate greater intuition, self-alignment, peace, and embodied presence
- The profound symbolism and transformational wisdom of the rose as a sacred geometric transmission
- Practical ways to access deeper dimensions of awareness through movement, intention, and devotion
You’ll also be guided through a gentle sacred dance experience designed to help you enter the living geometry of the rose and receive its wisdom directly through your own embodied experience.
No dance experience is necessary. Banafsheh’s approach is welcoming, accessible, and deeply compassionate—inviting presence rather than performance and connection rather than perfection.
If you long to feel more alive, aligned, connected, and spiritually nourished, this extraordinary experience offers an invitation to awaken the wisdom of your body and discover the sacred patterns that shape your life.

Banafsheh - Dance of OnenessEvent MemberIranian-born master dance artist and transformational teacher, Banafsheh communicates the universal message of Sufi mysticism and Divine Feminine wisdom in a passionate yet serenely meditative way. Her dance is an interplay between trance and directed movement, precise yet abandoned and unrestrained. Her explosive yet fluid movement is sensual and ritualistic, uniting the feminine and masculine energies, body and soul, light and dark in a marriage of opposites. She invokes the ancient roots of dance as devotion, prayer and adoration while blazing an original trail in contemporary dance with her masterly fusion of high level dance technique and spirituality.
Her mesmerizing offering of the timeless Divine Feminine inside a contemporary gypsy dervish beckons all to engage, serve, exalt and honor our sexuality as sacred. She is one of the few bearers of authentic Persian dance in the world, an innovator of Sufi dance previously only performed by men and a pioneer in contemporary Persian dance, all of which characterize the form she has created called Dance of Oneness® geared towards empowering women and men through sacred embodiment.
Internationally known for her innovative movement vocabulary and high artistic and educational standards, she draws from her extensive background in Sufism, Persian dance and ritual, Tai Chi and flamenco to present a new form, rooted in tradition yet universal.
Banafsheh’s movement is comprised in part by the Persian alphabet translated into gestures and movement, which when put together dances out words and poetic stanzas, mostly taken from the works of the great mystic poet, Rumi, whom she has studied extensively, resonating with his fierce yet gentle essence that beckons each and everyone to break through conformity and limitation to find their individual glory.
Banafsheh comes from a long lineage of pioneering performing artists. Her father, the legendary Iranian filmmaker, theater director and actor, Parviz Sayyad, hailed as the Charlie Chaplin of Iran, is the most famous Iranian of his time. Banafsheh is a recipient of the prestigious James Irvine Foundation grant in Dance. She holds an MFA in Dance from UCLA where she taught Persian dance. She has studied with some of the great masters in dance and choreography including Antonia Rojos, Victoria Marks, David Rousseve and Donna Uchizono. Also an acupuncturist, she draws from the Taoist view of the internal functioning of the body to uncover the healing, rejuvenating aspects of movement. Banafsheh’s solo and ensemble work with her dance company, NAMAH has been presented extensively in festivals and by dance presenters in North America, Europe and Australia where she has gained tremendous audience and critical acclaim. She recently performed at the closing night of the Festival of Sacred Arts in Madrid at Teatros del Canal. Her 2011 dance film In the Fire of Grace with author and scholar, Andrew Harvey traces Rumi’s journey of the Soul in dance.
