“Duruşu düzeltmek en
büyük amacımız. Doğru duruşu yakaladığınızda, ki bu uzun süreli bir
amaçtır, her şeye karşı doğru durmaya başladığınızı, kendi çizginizi
yakaladığınızı, tutarlılığınızı oluşturduğunuzu farkedersiniz. Bunun
sağladığı güven önünüzde hiçbir engel bırakmaz. Sırt, güç ve hafızanın
doğru kullanımını temsil eder. Güçsüz bir sırt, insanı yok edecek sürece
sizi sokar. Somut görüntüsü, kireçlenme, ağrılar ve kaymalar; duygu
dünyasında ise güvensizliktir. Bu, başka birçok olumsuzluğun da
kaynağıdır.”
Meditative Dance is a unique way to explore ourselves. It is a wonderful chance to view our relations with ourselves, other people and the universe with a new eye. It aims to release the self from the clutter, stress and griminess of the world we now live in and its pressuring ideologies, which is also the main cause of alienation we feel deep inside; to discover our Self and our Body; to taste the magic of conscious existence; and to relieve and revive our spirit.
Meditative Dance feeds our self-controlling abilities; integrates our body and mind; increases our consciousness and creativity.
Meditative Dance seeks the Balance where Thought meets the Motion and Body meets the Memory and Power. It pursues the harmony of intelligence and emotion. It helps us to carry the richness of our inner worlds always upon ourselves and to see the power source of our each behavior. “Duruşu düzeltmek en büyük amacımız.

Meditative Dance study makes us recognize how we use each component of our
self and understand how right efforts are manifested perfectly; It aims to
get us reach at our own awareness.
Meditative Dance evokes the magical talents of the
human such as body-consciousness, intuitive thinking and natural living,
which we gained in distant past yet lost with the development of modern
world system, through focusing and meditation and specially-developed body
exercises.
With
straightening the posture, protecting and strengthening the accordion-like
structure of spinal cord, it gives human the self-confidence and health he
deserves. It protects and saves the body forever from wrong habits as well
as aches, physical and mental unhealthiness and illnesses.
You can re-shape your body once
attained Body Consciousness. You reach at the real, strong body and have
control on your illnesses and disabilities. You can listen to your body
and direct it. It also listens to you and helps you express yourself as
you will; assisting you in manifesting your relations with yourself and
others in the creative combinations you form. This helps you harmonize
with Life.
“you must
first strengthen your legs to jump far off…”
The NEPHES technique, interpreting thousands years of human thought and experience on body with a brand new and brilliant intellect, gives body Power, Form and Elasticity. Restoring the balance between physical and emotional world with materializing human consciousness upon Body generates an unlimited creative energy in participants.
The healing power of Group Energy, the eternal existence of motion and dance help human reach down at his roots and secret worlds, and give him the confidence and pure joy he deserves, while carrying him to the future. By reflecting the knowledge and sensation of the East and its way of integration with the universe together with the technique and pace of the West on our pure reality, Meditative Dance offers human new directions while furnishing him with intelligence. All our self-components make use of this study: Our Body gains power, extension and elasticity; Our mind gets concentrated; Our spirit gains confidence and empathy; thus a healthy balance is restored among them.
Motion and change is the common feature of everything around us, our planet and the whole universe. As we harmonize with this eternal dance, we will feel the Life and its magical Real. Deciphering the mystery of memory and consciousness is only possible with getting aware of our Body first; the common key that we share with whole history and mankind, strengthening it. Remember; It is body that produces the Thought and it is Thought that sets up the Future.
Benefits of Meditative Dance“You live in what you create..” Discovering our body and learning to use it consciously will not only give us a unique power and perception talent, but also will it foster conscious, right and healthy activity in our daily life with coordinating our body and mind.
When we feel the flow of our movements coming from inside, we will feel everything we touch and this will give us happiness. In everything we do in our daily life; while walking, sitting, working, we will perceive the world in a different way and will love it much more. Straightening the posture is the primary aim of Meditative Dance. This is a long-term goal. With NEPHES technique, you will have plenty of each muscle you use, which will entirely eliminate the risk of becoming crippled due to putting more than necessary burden on some of your muscles. By using the fluidity of body, Meditative Dance will release you from your restricted attitude towards your body and bestow you the ability to express your potential power in a broad-range of activities. This will furnish you with brand-new powers that you can use till the end of your life. Meditative Dance presents the keys to discovering ancient magical talents of humans such as intuitive mind and natural living, which were gained in the past yet ignored in daily life, at the bottom of our brain, in places that we can easily reach. Beginning from twenties, the lack of these hinders one’s ability of progress and continuous renovation. The body complains through aches and wrong habits that become permanent. The body, which cannot foresee its continuation, imprisons itself to stereotyped activities; and this makes us lose some of our muscles and motions together with some of our feelings. Stretching our spinal cord and restoring its balance will assist you in expressing your individual elasticity and creativity. Meditative Dance will stop the process taking spinal cord from inactivity as far as calcinosis as a result of the deformation of its accordion-like structure, and will furnish it with its ancient and new talents. Your conscious movements will give a new direction both to your spirit and to all your feelings that were shaped in the past and sustained, and fill you up with an everlasting confidence. Individual and the Group Meditative Dance focuses on both the individual and the group. The group stands for energy combination and harmony. In studies, we will feel group energy intensely; this will give us power and confidence, but we will also expect to be treated individually with regards to our personal differences. Since body and mind structure of each person is his own richness and distinction, the physical problems of each person will be examined separately. With the help of the motivating and encouraging power of group energy, the person will reach at his own power, his roots, his body, his mind, and thence at the reality and harmony of his image reflected on the universe. Meditative Dance gives back human the guileless intent and healing power of group energy, which was lost in history, together with their potential gains. Meditative Dance sees human not only as an individual but also as the mutual reality the energy shared with nature and with all creatures living on Earth. It bestows human the confidence his memory deserves. And it is in our hand to find out the place and color of each of us in that vast Memory.
