5 Ways we are alive – Experience lines in Biodanza
The freedom of individuals requires an appropriate structure for the development of innate potentials. Freedom and development are complementary. Music and movement, my counterpart and the group are determined in Biodanza to trigger experiences. Repeated triggering of certain forms of experience creates a reorganization of the action and reaction patterns to life. The regulating effect of the experience does not act on the cortex but to the limbic-hypothalamic region, the emotion-regulating cerebral center. The experiences are divided into five major groups expressed the human potential: the vitality, sexuality, creativity, affectivity and transcendence.

The experience lines

The Biodanza system stimulates the expression and the development of our potentials along these five lines experience. There are therefore a number of exercises and group situations to stimulate this expression of skills.

Affectivity – I want to love and be loved!

In the affectivity we experience the deep essential relationship between us humans. The affectivity allows feelings like love, friendship, altruism, motherhood, fatherhood and comradeship and loyalty. As differentiated love to affectivity refers to an individual, as an undifferentiated love to humanity as a whole. The Experience Line affectivity wants to arouse and encourage, by the affective core of being human is developed tenderness, solidarity, love and the instinct for communication with the neighbor.
The expression of affectivity leads to an atmosphere of human communication and opens new dimensions in which the integrity and beauty can develop feelings.

Transcendence – I want to connect with the essence of life!

In the transcendence we awaken our ability to go beyond the ego and always to integrate larger units in connection with our environment. Ecstasy and Intase are conditions that allow us to delve into this human capacity. They lead to the deep experience of being alive, and being part of a coherent and integrated whole that could also be described as the essence of being. The instinct to fuse or „resolution“ in the totality, tends to an original harmony, as we have experienced at the breast of our mother. What is described as „oceanic state“ means the resolution of our personality limitations and enlightenment.

In Biodanza transcendence line is excited to enable the development of intimacy with each participant himself, nature and the human community. Transcending is life in all its fullness in the experience here and now – starting from the Saints in all of us.
