“The object of meditation,” teaches Gabrielle Roth, “is to still the mind – and the fastest way to do that is to move your body.” On The Inner Wave, the third video in Gabrielle Roth’s Ecstatic Dance video collection, we join this pioneer of ecstatic dance to investigate stillness, the mother of all rhythm, through a meditative trance dance journey. Joined by dancers of all age groups and body types, Gabrielle leads a physical meditation that has been called a “living prayer.” As we surrender to the dance, exploring and improvising with every part of our bodies, we will experience how ecstatic dance can clear the mind and open the heart, and allow us to approach the stillpoint within.
