We meet countless spirited women who tell us they LOVE to dance.  When we ask where they dance, they usually sigh and answer, "I don't." Something in us rails against this answer! It's not okay that we don't dance! Dancing is an integral part of life, an expression of human experience, a way to be in our bodies whatever life brings. The Petaluma Women's Dance Circle was created to give ourselves a safe, sacred place to dance in community, to celebrate the sacred within and around us: the seasons …

Are you interested in Morris dancing? Have you ever heard of Morris dancing? "Morris" is a general term used to label several distinct forms of seasonal folk dance: the springtime dance of the Cotswold with its intricate foot and handwork (that's what we tend to do), the raucous winter stick dances of the Welsh Borderlands, longsword dances with Germanic origins, and the antics of the cross-dressing Molly dancers from East Anglia.  Shakespeare was making fun of Morris dancing before it was the t …

Kizomba is a beautiful and sensual partner dance, originally from Africa, which is taking the world by strom. For experienced dancers, it is an exciting breath of fresh air. The basics are comfortable to slip into, yet, the dance is challenging enough to keep anyone dancing it for years to come. This also makes Kizomba perfect for anyone wanting to enter the world of dance. A beginner can enjoy the pleasure of social dancing much quicker than with other types of partner dances. Kizomba was deriv …

The "Dancing with the Stars" series has sprouted new and enduring interest in ballroom dancing; health practitioners are promoting dancing as a healthy exercise for physical fitness as well as prevention of dementia and Alzheimers.  I remember the joy at age 11 learning the 2-step (poor man's fox trot?) to "You Belong to Me" and the hesitation waltz to "Tennessee Waltz" at Francisco Jr. High in San Francisco; later the thrill of "getting it" after learning to jitterbug, and still later the mambo …
