SUMMARY:Center of the Heart
DESCRIPTION:Invitation:  Center of the Heart \nPoets and philosophers have written about the Heart extensively and have concluded that the Heart is our emotional center. It is the place that tells us the truth\, gives us freedom\, guides us\, and fosters our connections in life. Perhaps that is why we use phrases such as: “I love you with all my heart\,” “You are in my heart\,” “My heart feels for you\,” “Listen to your heart\,” and “Open your heart” to name a few. \nIn this dance today\, imagine the center of your heart as an infinite dance space where you feel warmth and connection that is sacred. Let’s find out what lies within the center of our Hearts.

SUMMARY:Instrumental Restriction at Warren Wilson College Bryson Gym!
DESCRIPTION:Invitation: Instrumental Restriction at\nWarren Wilson College Bryson Gym! \nI’ve often tried creating an ecstatic wave journey without any lyric heavy songs. It never ends up happening. I just love using songs with lyrics both in english and other languages too much. But for this mix I will restrict myself to only songs that have instrumentals\, or I will cut out any lyrics. I’m curious how it might land for our dance community and the creative direction it might take me on. \nI’m always trying to evolve and adapt my craft as a music weaver\, and an easy way to do that is to impose restrictions that force me into uncomfortable and uncharted territories. If you’d like to journey into such an exploration\, I invite you to come to this dance. \nThe invitation there for you as a dancer\, will be to explore the messages you find in music that is devoid of words. And also\, the invitation is to explore how creative restrictions can fuel your creativity and dance expression. \nMicah is a long time ecstatic dance dj and facilitator. His mixes can be found at soundcloud.com/mikayaswabb. He is also offering one on one DJ lessons for new aspiring DJs as well as for seasoned DJs who are curious to learn more about how to craft sets that use an ecstatic dance style wave progression through a diverse set of musical genres. Please email him at micahswabb@pm.me if interested in lessons.

SUMMARY:Dance for Your Life
DESCRIPTION:Invitation: Dance for Your Life \nThis poem says it all:\nThey Danced for the Love They Felt\nby Shiloh Sophia McCloud\n(re-written by Stacey with “they” instead of “her” to be more inclusive) \nThey danced for the love they felt\, the love they gave away\, and the love they kept\nThey danced to free their spirit and to free other spirits too\nThey danced in response to joy and to process pain. \nThey moved their body like their life depended on it\,\nAll the while praying for love to come\, for sadness to go. \nThey danced for all the people who can’t dance for themselves. \nThey also taught others to dance for justice\, for truth\, for possibility…for healing the broken–hearted. \nThey danced with the little children and the wise old ones. \nThey danced to break the ties that bind our people\,\nTo bring awareness and healing\,\nTo invite friendship and art into the open spaces that the dance created. \nThey danced to break open the hearts of our people\,\nTo bring truth and compassion\,\nTo encourage kindness and vision towards the healed places that the dance created. \nThey danced to keep the flame of true love burning. \nThey danced for all the wishes\, all the dreams and all the blessings. \nThey danced the first dance and the last dance. \nThey danced when they were too tired to walk. \nThey danced for the living and for the dead\,\nIn birth and in mourning\,\nFor peace\, beauty and creative expression. \nThey danced their prayers all the way to God\,\nWhich wasn’t so very far after all.

SUMMARY:What Dreams May Come
DESCRIPTION:Invitation:\nYou are born to fly\, and in dreams you remember the soul has wings\n— Robert Moss \nOur nightly dreams can contain a wealth of untapped insight and can help us process our day to day experiences\, memories\, and emotions. Sometimes our dreams may be trying to help us resolve a problem or bring something to our conscious waking attention. Sometimes our dreams are our bodies trying to communicate with us. Dreams invite us to spiral inward and explore our connection to meaning\, purpose\, and soul. Sometimes our dreams connect us to what is happening in the collective or our communities or something larger. \nFor this dance\, I invite you to connect with a dream that you are curious about and see if it wants to be danced and moved. Allow yourself the chance to dance a new ending\, a new insight. Maybe\, just maybe\, there is something there waiting in the ‘wings’—ready to transform and fly! \nLanie McKeever is a visionary empath and artist\, fledgling music weaver\, and lover of enchantment\, currently residing in Asheville\, NC. Finding ecstatic dance in 2014\, she has been moving and ‘moved’ by the healing power of voices\, rhythms\, and music ever since. She is grateful to explore ecstatic dance with Asheville Movement Collective.

SUMMARY:Renewal
DESCRIPTION:Invitation: Renewal \nWe have reached the mid winter mark. Some celebrate Imbolc\, Candlemass\, and Groundhog Day.  We all celebrate the returning of the light. The earth’s fire and Sunlight awakens nature and invites renewal.  Are we ready to shed the dry leaves and bark that protected us from our personal winter? Can we push through the frozen ground of our self imposed barriers? Can we sprout green leaves of self love and blooms of tenderness for ourselves and others? Can we dance to renewal?

SUMMARY:(Un)masked
DESCRIPTION:Invitation: (Un)masked \nFebruary is the season for Carnivale. Originating in 11th century Venice\, where for over 2 weeks\, people from all social classes wore masks and celebrated together. The mask became part of everyday attire for some to help break cultural norms.  A mask can bring out our darker natures\, and a more amplified\, authentic\, and less restrained version of our personalities. \nThe modern meaning of the word mask derives from Medieval Latin masca which means witch or specter\, and influenced by the Arabic maskara\, or buffoon. Used in rituals and ceremonies\, the oldest found dates from 7000 BC. \nThe mask is deeply imprinted in our psyche. The spiritual power in masks transport us into realms unseen and gives voice to things unspoken. Within the context of ritual\, putting on a mask places the wearer at the intersection between the present and the past\, the living and the dead\, the seen and the unseen.  Donning a mask can allow us to adopt the spirit of it\, and to connect with creatures\, our ancestors\, and the Divine. \nWhat about our own internal masks? Our personality masks?\nWe take steps to cover up who we really are around other people in social\, work\, or personal interactions\, mostly to protect ourselves from dominant culture\, or as a result from trauma. We can mask our personality with words\, facial expressions\, body language\, actions\, and even dance. Starting when we are very young\, many of us were taught to mask  to conceal negative emotions (usually sadness\, frustration\, and anger) with a positive emotion or indifferent affect.  If we wear a mask too long we can forget we are wearing it\, and it can cause depression and be depleting to our true nature. \nWhat masks do you wear? Are you the martyr\, the bully\, the comedian\, the overachiever\, the people-pleaser\, the social butterfly\, the conformist\, or the rebel?- \nThe invitation is to dance with your masks\, sifting though your social\, work\, and relationships masks.\nHow do they want to move?\nWhere do they live in your body?\nWhat does it feel like to put them on and take them off consciously\, in dance?

SUMMARY:10 Things I Learned from My Cat
DESCRIPTION:Invitation: 10 Things I Learned from My Cat \n\nIt’s OK to communicate my wants and needs.\nWhen bad things happen\, like being accidentally locked in the garage\, I don’t need to freak out or grumble. I can just make the best of things\, perhaps looking for interesting animals\, until someone opens the door.\nWhen a part of me says my cat loves me and another part says she’s just using me for food and chin scratches\, I get to choose which one to believe.\nWorrying about what people think of me is optional.\nWorrying about the future is optional.\nThinking is optional.\nEating something that dropped on the ground won’t kill me.\nI can catch up on sleep during the day if I want.\nI don’t need to be ashamed about bodily functions.\nAlways keep breathing.\nIt’s OK if I don’t know how to count to 10.\n\nMany of these lessons can be practiced on the dance floor. \nYou can hear some of Ted’s mixes at https://www.mixcloud.com/tarisk/.

SUMMARY:Horns\, Drums\, and Drops
DESCRIPTION:Invitation:  Horns\, Drums\, and Drops \nFacilitator: Micah Swabb\nGuest Musicians: \nMax Ribner on the Flugelhorn\, trumpet\, and keys\nSteven Truluck on the djembe \nTo kick-off AMC restarting 2nd Friday Night dances\, Micah Swabb (dj Mikaya) will be mixing a live set with two live musicians: Max Ribner on the Flugelhorn\, trumpet and keys\, with local drummer Steven Truluck on the djembe. This 90 minute set will be high energy at the peak with an all live acoustic section. The overall structure of the dance will follow the classic “wave” progression. This set will be light on lyrics. \nMax Ribner Bio \nWhat are the common threads that bridge jazz\, soul\, and classical music with spiritual connection and community service? This is the question that drives international touring artist Max Ribner. The sound that answers is rich\, reverent\, and intimate\, connecting us through the lineage of music\, to the stories of our ancestors. In the past\, Max’s unique and fusion-inspired approach to Flugelhorn and trumpet has led him to perform with artists such as Esperanza Spalding\, Nahko And Medicine For The People\, Trevor Hall\, The Polish Ambassador\, Liv Warfield and many more. To listen to Max’s music visit: https://www.maxribner.com/. \nDJ Mikaya Bio \nMikaya has been deejaying and facilitating for AMC for the past four years. His sets can be found at https://soundcloud.com/mikayaswabb.

SUMMARY:Shake\, Rattle & Roll
DESCRIPTION:Invitation:Shake\, Rattle & Roll \nFacilitator: Micah Swabb \nMicah Swabb will tap into some genres of music that we don’t often hear at AMC and that inspire us to shake it out\, rattle the rafters\, and roll around on the floor in laughter. What better way to get any stuck winter energy moving as we welcome spring. This live mixed DJ set will follow a “wave” structure with a gradual build and soft landing. There will be a wide variety of beat structures to the music. Expect the unexpected with a flair for the theatrical. \nMicah (DJ Mikaya) Swabb will be playing a live dj mix. His mixes can be found at: https://soundcloud.com/mikayaswabb.

SUMMARY:The Greening Within
DESCRIPTION:Invitation: The Greening Within \nHundreds of years ago\, the beginning of Spring and the New Year were honored around this time. This time served as a turning point for the seasons and signaled the onset of changes in weather as the elements of Winter sometimes clashed with the coming Spring. It was a time in which the land was turning towards warmth\, and with it\, towards new life. The greening\, the spark of new life\, was awakening. \nFor this dance\, the invitation is for us to work with this natural cycle of awakening—noting what landscapes within us are coming to life again. As Winter relinquishes the pause within us\, let’s turn our bodies\, minds\, and spirits towards the subtle warmth calling us into connection and growth. May you discover the ‘greening within’ and move it into this new year\, new cycle. \nLanie McKeever is a visionary empath\, mystic artist\, fledgling music weaver\, and lover of enchantment\, currently residing in Asheville\, NC. Finding ecstatic dance in 2014\, she has been moving and ‘moved’ by the healing power of voices\, rhythms\, and music ever since. She is grateful to explore ecstatic dance with Asheville Movement Collective. \nYou can check out Lanie’s other mixes here: https://www.mixcloud.com/funkypretty/
