These Mystical Dances and Practices are inspired from a variety of ancient traditions that have existed for centuries and are being conserved and practiced throughout the world. We practice sacred art traditions rooted from places such as China, India, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkey, Egypt, North/West Africa & Spain (Iberia), inspiring a world-bonding consciousness through the arts of dance.

As we prepare to receive transmission of ancient tradition and ritual, practice meditation and other sequences, we dance and hold sacred space in unity, we become more self empowered using consciously styled movement, we are also invoking an offering to heal and awaken our minds and bodies using holistic movement methodologies, and we are attuning into a higher vibration of our Divine Femenine and Sacred Masculine energies as well as strengthening the vibrations of our Sacred Universe.

We are called to connect deeper within ourselves we find to realize we are ready to bloom as a stronger flower and harvest a richer fruit to offer it each day to our surrounding communities, to our families, to nature, and to the elements. We are like flowers in a garden, each flower is unique. Each flower grows and has its own unique beauty and fragrance.

To be within and feel our senses, to offer our gifts to our surroundings, and to feel that just being there is not only empowering but transforming, as we participate in combinations of activities such as dance, ancient divine femeninity and sacred masculine rituals, meditation, yoga philosophy, ancient martial art meditations, and theatrical arts in a sacred environment is not only transforming but it gives a deeper meaning to our existence and presence as a person, thus gives us a more empowered awakening and reinforces our quality of life and self worth. Most important, it gives us the assurance that we can give out to others as we transcend beyond obstacles and limitations.

Breathing in the fragrance of the flower bud, the flower bloom, and embodying the delicious taste of the emerging fruit; our bodies, our minds, our hearts, are called to offer the fruit. It is the life force; the Flower Blossom. To acknowledge the selfless giving of a seed, its transformation to flower bud, its gentle blooming petals with exquisite fragrance, and the shedding of its petals after its beauty was offered and the magical transformation into a fruit; to feel that you are the same as this seed to this world, can be a transforming and deep experience.

To reach this self realization of awakening but also to reach an empowerment through self consciousness of your life force's worth, and what this is within you can be described as part of the Azahaarsham community experience.

Just bring your open heart, a water bottle, and your smile to class.

Azahaarsham is:

A name of Flower Blossoms... A name of Breath...

An Invitation to transform into Embodied Dancer, Yogi or Yogini and Embodied Being, a sensory of culture and art as sacredness, and community/world bonding.

For Yourself and the Universe around you, in Unity, Beauty, Peace, and Empowerment.

Blown Beauty




That which God said to the Rose,
and caused it to laugh in full blown beauty,
He said to my Heart,
and made it a hundred times more beautiful.

Blaze





The Enjoyment of the Companions
of the Blaze is tremendous,
for they witness the abode,
while security is one of its properties.

There is no surprise if roses 
are found in rose gardens.

The surprise comes
when roses grow up
in the pit of the Fire.


Ibn Arabi

Wisdom



The Sun never says to the Earth,
'you owe me'.

Look what happens with a love like that,
it lights up the whole Sky.
