HEAVEN MOVES SUMMER DANCE INTENSIVE
WHAT’S THIS ALL ABOUT?
Take a deep dive into why and how we were made to MOVE with the living God— explore how dance can create an opening for the Lord to put you on like a glove, and not only experience dancing for Him but dancing with Him and through Him.
For four days we will move together through technique, dance electives, choreography, and prophetic improvisation. Staff who have been doing this for over fifteen years and have traveled around the world will share their knowledge and personal experience, and also set choreography on participants for the closing performance.
Our dream at Heaven Moves SDI (FL) is to continue to connect the Christian dance community along the East Coast, and cross pollinate to learn and grow from all God has done in us! So…
If you are a dance educator or minister: We have a heart to connect you to those who are doing the same thing day in and day out! Come to be refreshed, filled, and empowered with new tools to continue breaking ground in the world of dance in the Christian sphere.If you are a beginner: There is an OPEN LEVEL track for you! Even if you have little to no dance training, you are encouraged to join us. We wanted to make a space where you can grow and learn and take a step of trust… people who have never danced before are welcome and highly encouraged to come!
If you have technical training: You can expect intermediate to advanced level technique classes and choreography where you can glean and push yourself; meanwhile still getting the spiritual substance that you desire!AGES 13+WHERE
