What is BodyChoir?

Austin BodyChoir is ecstatic dance in community.

Come for an hour and a half of freeform dance where you can groove however your body wants, by yourself or with others. Bare your soles, surrender to the music and let your movement be guided by your body’s wisdom. There are no wrong moves. No previous dance experience necessary.

Dance
by Laurel Waters

The movement started
Fluid limbs
Rocking
Flowing
Without an end

We have created a foundation
Based on air
Built and mitered
For all to share

I have awoken
In a house
Filled with love
Surrounded in sweat
Circling bodies
Moving as one
Intent
Well met

The energy touches
The universe
Core
Where we remember
What we are here for
Community
Love
Strength
Truth

Here awaits
An unexplainable
Taste
Sweat
Affection
We will not waste

Guided intention
We begin to dance
The salt
Soaks in
The floor
Here the vortex begins
We soar
Leaving fear behind
We open a door
