Ritual 4

Flags

Last week we painted silk to make flags. Today we have created a flag ritual using bells and wood for sounds and music, placing and folding the flags, and mounting onto poles.
We then performed a flag waving ritual.

Bells have always played a part in rituals and ceremonies. Today we have explored ringing and jingling sounds, creating and performing our own rituals with the bells.

Ritual 1

A religious or solemn ceremony consisting of a series of actions performed according to a prescribed order - Oxford Dictionary

Today we have experimented with wood to create our own rituals.  From cane lines and patterns to walking paths and placing wood blocks. We finished by making special spaces.

Ritual 2
Water and Earth

Building on the work we did last week, we decorated our faces, arms and  hands with clay and flower petals. We ladled and poured water, passing bowls between us. We moved to sounds and rythms created on drums, keyboard and voice.

Sky Dive Experience

Free falling,  floating, fluid formation.

After training in how to jump from the  aeroplane, formation sky diving, free fall diving and landing, we left on the aeroplane to fly 5,000 metres high. Feeling and hearing the wind as we moved through the air and through the clouds, soaring and flying, we finally landed safe and sound.
