Research on mirror neurons and the neurology
of compassion combine with discoveries of the
common roots of music, dance, and speech in
human consciousness. We will practice mirroring
through call and response singing, and simple
Aikido-based imitative movements. With a
heightened readiness for compassionate hearing,
we will listen to one another speak our experience
of the Holy.
Donald Schell, Episcopal priest and
Aikido black belt launched All Saints
Company’s national music workshops and
publication, Music By Heart, in order to
recover traditional singing methods to build
community and liturgy. |
