Zohar Productions - Zohar's Vision

When I dance, I re-connect with this ancient heritage. I feel the power
and force of The Feminine as it is manifested in undulating, circling
and flowing movements. The pelvis, the center of life, quivers, rocks
and sways with intricate and muscle manipulations in sacred patterns.
From here the energy rises
with fluidity and grace
through my spine, my arms,
up towards the heavens, a
mystical surge framed by a
silken veil which floats
and spirals about me like
a shimmering, ethereal cloud.
My body becomes an orchestra
for the expression of multiple
feelings, from the most
elemental and passionate to
the most subtle and sublime.
When I perform The Dance of
The Goddess, it is with
sensitivity, elegance and
artistry. In this manner,
The Dance can once again be
appreciated as a source of
great power and beauty.


Thousands of years ago our ancestors worshipped a Female Deity. They erected temples to her and sculpted her image in stone, clay and wood. She was The Great Goddess. Various civilizations called her different names: Isis, Aphrodite, Inanna and Ishtar. Her priestesses danced at ceremonials, rituals and initiations. They functioned as shamans for their ancient cultures. Through their gestures and moves they induced a mystical connection with The Great Goddess causing powerful archetypal energies to flow through their bodies in the geometrical forms they deemed sacred: circles, spirals and figure eights.
Over time the power of The Great Goddess was suppressed by the emerging patriarchy and the dance was confined to a very limited form of expression behind harem walls. Eventually, it made its way out into public view again as a secular expression of sensuality and celebration. Separated from its sacred, mystical roots, it is often perceived in an unfavorable light. This is unfortunate and unnecessary because when it is performed properly, it is the ultimate expression of feminine grace and power.
