It is traditional to have a collective focus as well as a personal focus for ceremony and making offerings or "give-aways" has always been part of ceremonies like the Long Dance. Our prayers are strengthened by what we give back. Therefore, all dancers in the Long Dance Ceremony will be invited to raise sponsorship money from their friends and families so that as well as raising energy, the ceremony will raise significant funds to support projects that reach out at a local, national and international level. This ensures that our work together will also have positive impact beyond our immediate circle. All funds raised will be go to environmental and social projects. Please feel free to contribute what you can to this part of our work together. Whether you raise £10 or £10,000 is not the point. It is the intention to give back with as much generosity as you can that matters. This work is part of your preparation for what promises to be a very powerful Movement Medicine ceremony. Further details about this will be sent to you with your confirmation.
