[edit] Ceremonial Dance as a subset of Sacred Dance

The Lakeshore Chapter of the Sacred Dance Guild developed the following definition of sacred dance: Sacred dance encompasses all movement that expresses or enhances spiritual experiences. It may be a part of a worship service, a group experience or a private spiritual practice. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/GodDance

I would put Sacred Dance as one of the main categories of dance and then put ceremonial and ritual dance under it. Also add the categories liturgical dance and praise dance. Body prayer is yet another form.

I offer the Sacred Dance Guild as a resource http://www.sacreddanceguild.org
