There was a time when dance was practiced as communion with the divine. It was most valued in goddess-worshipping cultures where women served as priestesses. This book investigates how dance came to be excluded from worship and how it is once again being integrated into spiritual practice, allowing women to integrate the movements of faith, healing, and power into their daily life.
