Contemplative dance is a way of praying not only with the mind and the heart, but fundamentally with the body. Through gesture and movement, praying together as a group, the dance gradually leads participants into a meditative and prayerful state.
Like any other form of prayer, it is a means of encountering God, of experiencing His love, and thus of living in the world while striving to bear witness to that love.
At the Basílica de Santa Maria del Mar, for several years now, a group of people has gathered on the first Monday of each month to pray through contemplative dance, from 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., following the parish Mass celebrated at 7:30 p.m.
