A Dance Mag Issue 1

Each issue of a Dance Mag is inspired by a dance flow and explores a universe of imaginaries, histories, rituals, mythologies, and narratives related to and inspired by that flow.

Inspired by the Sufi whirling practice, issue 01 theme is: Transcendence. In its exploration of the human instinct to go beyond material reality and personal limitations, the Transcendence issuetakes the reader on a journey of Sufi tales, deity-possession lived-experiences in Ghanian rituals, Ketamine-induced trances in Techno nightclubs, the seekings of a yoga teacher, innocent childhood games of whirling-until-fainting in Iceland, among other experiences, stories and places.
