Living in Nova Scotia, it is a new son and
the Atlantic Ocean that are inspiring me these days - beautiful

Thriller album, to the Grateful Dead, to moving with Gabrielle
Roth and the many teachers that have come before and after.

David
Tomas:
David delivers fitness and lifestyle programs
to infants, children and youth. He believes children have lost
their connection with the earth and their ancestral spirit.
Fun and funny aerobic adventures are designed to introduce the
wild to the doorsteps of children’s imaginations. Ecstatic trance
dance with adults is simply a generational shift of these intimate
and fun events. He brings his own dance formula to share and
blend with the deep and beautiful dance experiences of other
like souls. |
