TaKeTiNa: Dance and Chant
TaKeTiNa is an up and coming rhythm, dance, and chant discipline. It involves basic beats layered with gentle body movements and uses a single stringed musical instrument (the berimbau) as an accompanying drone. After completing the exercise, the participants (usually in a euphoric state) all lay down and are asked to bring their focus inward. I tried it recently and found it enjoyable and insightful.

I'm not sure. I was told there is one person who might be in the area. I will find out more info.
There are two qualified TaKeTiNa teachers in the DC area: me (Pam Desmond) and my colleague Marcus Sims. We don't have any workshops on the books at the moment, but if you would like to be added to our mailing list for future events, please let me know!
Hello Pam! Thank you for posting. Sign me up! :)
