Life balance

27th May 2010
YOURLifeChoices subscriber, Harsu, has suggested Wu Tao, a dance-based therapy, to re-energise your body, mind and soul.

Wu Tao has its foundations in Oriental Medicine and restores balance in your life with a holistic approach to a system of healing. The program is based on five dances which work on balancing two meridians, such as bladder and kidneys, belonging to a particular element, in this case Water.

Participants learn and perform the dances to relaxing music, which is chosen to correspond and enhance the particular element being concentrated on. The goal is a feeling of harmony and balance, both physically and mentally.

You can start with a simple class, only being as energetic as you feel the need to be, and no previous dancing skills are necessary. As your confidence and expertise grows, you may wish to consider a workshop or retreat to fully investigate the options Wu Tao can offer.
