Rose of Love — Journey Into Persian Dance with Banafsheh — 4-week Series starts Nov. 5th
Let the Rose of your heart blossom through Persian dance and mystical poetry as you embody love and the great mystery, perfumed by the Divine Feminine.
The Rose is the alchemical symbol of the heart opening to love and the cosmos in perpetual motion. Its beauty, intoxicating fragrance, and gorgeous colors hold some of the highest frequencies on Earth.
The Rose has long represented the Divine Feminine. It is the supreme image of love, wisdom, creation, fertility, and mystery. The symmetrical arrangement of its petals around a deep and lush center are reminiscent of the orbital pattern of Venus, both of which have long symbolized love.
In this 4-week dance journey, you’ll be initiated into the mystery and power of the Rose through the sublime passion of Persian dance through short choreographies, free-style dance, and mystical teachings.
The ecstatic and sublime passion of Persian dance blossoms from the soul of the Rose, perfumed by the great Persian mystics, Rumi, Attar and Hafez, whose poetry will grace our sessions.
Experience your inner and outer beauty as you embody love and its alchemical mystery, through Banafsheh’s unique combination of sacred dance, Eastern energy medicine and wisdom teachings, meditation and visualizations, and the poetry of the mystics.
Explore the symbolism of the Rose Garden and Paradis, the Garden of Paradise in Persian mysticism, to learn how the mesmerizing fragrance of Persian dance comes out of the soul of the rose.
