Classes Rooted in Embodied Practice

At Dancing the Worlds, classes are offered as living practices, not techniques to master or performances to perfect.

Each session invites you into a direct relationship with your own body, breath, and awareness, supporting steadiness, clarity, and a deeper capacity to meet life as it is.

Rather than working only with the mind, these practices engage the whole human experience: sensation, movement, breath, and presence. Over time, this cultivates a grounded way of being that can be carried into everyday life.

These classes are suitable for those new to embodied work as well as those with an established contemplative or movement practice.

Tuesday evenings at 8 pm and Thursday Mornings at 7 am via Zoom.

Please contact us through the contact form for more info. Both above classes are via zoom or in person in Monkstown, Dublin.

The Practices We Explore

The Nine Breathing of Purification

The Nine Breathing of Purification is a foundational breath practice that supports the release of physical, emotional, and mental tension.

Through guided breathing and gentle awareness, this practice helps reconnect with natural clarity and balance. It is often experienced as calming, centering, and supportive of emotional regulation.

This practice is offered with care and respect for its traditional roots, while remaining accessible and grounded in lived experience.

The Five Tsa Lung Exercises

The Five Tsa Lung exercises combine breath, movement, and attention to support the free flow of energy and awareness in the body.

These movements are subtle yet powerful, helping to:

  • awaken embodied awareness

  • support nervous system balance

  • cultivate stability and presence

The emphasis is not on form, but on listening, allowing the body to guide the pace and depth of practice.

About Bön

Bön is Tibet’s oldest spiritual tradition and the indigenous source of Tibetan culture. Followers of Bön receive teachings and transmissions from teachers in lineages unbroken from ancient times to the present day. While much of modern Bön is similar to Tibetan Buddhism, Bön retains the richness and flavor of its pre-Buddhist roots. Its teachings range from harmonizing our body, speech and mind with the elemental energies of nature to the Great Perfection teachings of dzogchen.

About Tibetan Bön

Originally the term "bon" designated the various existing religious and magico-ritual traditions, very probably based on elements common to the heritage of panasiatic shamanism. Etymologically the term derives from the verb bonpa, "to recite magical formulas", because the power its practitioners obtained from the recitation of mantra, syllables or sounds with the capacity to influencing certain energy dimensions. In fact through the vibration of mantra the ancient Bonpos came into contact with and succeeded in controlling, the invisible energies and occult forces that govern existence. - From Druna, Den and Bon, Namkhai Norbu.
