 Marsha Scarbrough 2007 One-Woman Show: In her one-woman show Medicine Dance, Marsha Scarbrough explores shamanism from an experiential perspective by dramatizing her training with Native American medicine man Beautiful Painted Arrow/Joseph Rael. She follows in the footsteps of Carlos Castaneda and Lynn Andrews to confront life-threatening illness with shamanic healing. Her deeply personal (and often humorous) performance is based on her book Medicine Dance: One womans healing journey into the world of Native American sweatlodges, drumming meditations and dance fasts. |

Workshops: Medicine Dancing In indigenous cultures, dance is not a performance but a meditation for the dancer. Marsha Scarbrough shares her experience of marathon dance fasts with Native American medicine teacher Beautiful Painted Arrow/Joseph Rael as described in her book Medicine Dance. Participants will learn to drum basic rhythms and be invited to experience dance as meditation. The goal is for participants to enter a group trance with the intention of creating personal healing and world peace. Bring drums and/or rattles. Ceremonial dress is appropriate. Ancient Vibrations Native American mystic Beautiful Painted Arrow/Joseph Rael teaches that everything is made up of vibration. By chanting sacred sounds, we can realign vibrations to create peace and healing. In this workshop, Marsha Scarbrough discusses these teachings, reveals the spiritual meaning of each vowel sound and leads participants in chants. The goal is to create positive vibrations for world peace and personal healing. Drum Journey Drumming induces trance. Playing or listening to sacred rhythms creates an altered state of consciousness. In this workshop, Marsha Scarbrough invites participants to experience this safe, natural, healthy high. She will teach drum journey technique and encourage participants to travel back through their ancestral lineage to create healing in the present. The power of group trance with positive intention will be discussed and demonstrated. Bring drums. Still Moving Marsha Scarbrough creates a free-expression dance experience for anyone over 50 especially those with limited mobility, physical and/or mental challenges. No dance experience or talent necessary. You cant do it wrong! Gentle movements that respect each bodys unique needs are inspired by Roth 5Rhythms, Tai Chi and indigenous ceremony. Participants of all ages, levels of experience and physical abilities simply dance like no one is watching. There are no right or wrong steps. Dance becomes moving meditation for the dancer. In this safe sacred space, each participant finds personal healing in movement and stillness. Canes, crutches and walkers are welcome. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes. |
