Synopsis by Kathryn Tamms

Ecstatic dance is an ancient spiritual practice based on body movements which had been all but forgotten in modern times until a teacher at the Esalen Institute began experimenting with it 35 years ago. That teacher, Gabrielle Roth, is recognized worldwide today for helping to re-create what the New York Post has called a "map for the entire creative process." The third video of Roth's "Wave" series introduces viewers to the high-velocity dance called the "Power Wave," designed to get the psyche moving while inspiring spontaneous states of creative, intuitive energy.
