Move&Groove Dance Benefit for Mary's Place

Move&Groove “No Child Sleeps Outside” Dance Benefit

Saturday, December 12 @ 7:00-8:15pm

DanceWorks Studio, 16641 Redmond Way, Redmond WA 9805

• Express yourself with freeform dance, while supporting a great cause! Freeform dance = no judgment and no experience needed.

• Move with the music, other dancers, the space. The joy of sharing movement with community.

• Give yourself permission to be yourself. Show up as-is, and dance from a place of easy and authentic movement. (“Be yourself; everybody else is already taken.” -Oscar Wilde)

• Groove to soul-stirring music: Music with an irresistible quality and a pleasurable drive toward movement.

Bonus: Your participation supports Seattle’s Mary’s Place. ”Empowering homeless women, children and families to reclaim their lives, by providing shelter, nourishment, resources, healing, and hope in a safe environment.”

What’s a Groove?
“The urge to move in response to music, combined with the positive affect associated with the coupling of sensory and motor processes while engaging with music in a seemingly effortless way, is commonly described as the feeling of being in the groove.” -Petr Janata Ph.D., UC Davis Center for Mind and Brain
