Founder of Dance of Oneness®
Banafsheh Sayyad
Bridge the sublime and the sensual through sacred dance — and become luminous.
Take root in the pulsating presence of life by honoring your true divine nature and the sacred vessel through which your life unfolds.
For many of us, the idea of embodying our divine nature means that we must first override our humanness, or the parts of ourselves that we find difficult to accept, honor, and love.
But what if our physical presence is actually the material part of our souls — through which we can experience a union of spirit and matter... the sublime and the sensual?
What if our bodies are living fields of higher consciousness and divine love where we can take root in the pulsating presence of life through physical form? Or as the Persian poet Rumi said:
“Look and see spirit blending with the earthbowl. How long will you speak of the seen and the unseen? Look and see the unseen blending with the seen. How long will you speak of this world and that world? Look and see that world blending with this world.”
In Sufism, which is the path of living love, our human and spiritual selves blend and we enter into oneness with All That Is.
One of the central pieces of this sacred path is Sama, or whirling dance — known to create coherence and a profound sense of oneness. This beautiful dance connects the head, heart, body, and soul and opens a channel for compassion, wisdom, and divine guidance.
As you journey on this path of embodied love from sacred dancer and acclaimed teacher of embodiment Banafsheh Sayyad, you’ll have the chance to experience this ancient Sufi wisdom and the alchemical power of your divine nature through a dance that activates the deeper potential of your energy centers, known as chakras in the East.
As a result, sacred dance can harmonize your energies, ground you in the present moment where you can truly honor the sacred and sensual vessel through which your life unfolds.
As the founder of Dance of Oneness™, Banafsheh performs and teaches internationally, initiating people into the wisdom of their bodies. During your time in this course, you’ll discover dance as a language between you and the Divine as your Beloved that is capable of shifting, influencing, and shaping consciousness — and ignite your inherent ability to receive and transmit love through sacred movement.
You’ll enter the body temple and be simultaneously anointed by the Great Mother while you transform mystery into matter through the sacred spiral...
... the most advanced human movement that engages all of your chakras — which are spiraling themselves.
You’ll activate your sacred sexuality, liberate your life-force and the intuitive, life-bearing, being aspect of your psyche, access self-authority through movements inspired by the fiery flamenco...
... and awaken and activate your pineal gland to dissolve dualistic thinking and the illusion of separation between you and the world.
Are you ready to bridge the sublime and the sensual through sacred dance — and embody light and love?
Embark on the path of living love through a dance that activates and blesses your chakras, harmonizes your energies and honors the sacred, sensual vessel through which your life unfolds.

What You’ll Discover in These 7 Modules
In this 7-part transformational intensive, Banafsheh guides you through the fundamental skills and competencies you’ll need to embody your sublime and sensual divinity and cultivate a body of light through sacred dance.
The Beauty of On-Demand
This course features step-by-step teachings and experiential practices from Banafsheh. Each session builds harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to embody your sublime and sensual divinity and cultivate a body of light through sacred dance. Your purchase includes 24/7 ongoing access to your course content, allowing you time to review the materials at your own pace and integration.
Module 1: Root Chakra — Enter the Body Temple
You’ll begin your journey with an initiation into the root chakra’s sacred truth: All is one. This is your link and your interconnection with all of life, as we are all part of one divine family. Every choice you make and every belief you hold exerts influence upon the whole of life.
Your wellbeing and your dance are dependent upon your connection with the Earth as Gaia, one of the supreme manifestations of the Great Mother — the more you revere and honor the Earth the healthier and more vibrant you will feel.
When you don’t honor the Earth, you are unable to honor your body and your bond with others… you’re actually unable to be.
As most of us are focused in our heads, the goal of this opening module is to actively remember you have a body and are one with the Earth.
During your initiation into the sacred truth of the root chakra, you’ll also:
- Awaken loving awareness in your whole body with The Weave, designed to ground you and bring you into presence
- Explore walking with loving awareness, correct alignment, and beauty — bridging the seen and the unseen with Dance Your Walk
- Activate and balance your root chakra and begin to develop an intimate bond with the Earth as the basis, root, and foundation for all your movement, as well as your bonds and relationships through tribal dance
- Gain tools to get out of your head and direct your energy down into the rest of your body to be more fully yourself — and to live with more capacity
- Let go and relax into the now, releasing the tension from external stimuli through the Active Relaxation method
- Cultivate a true sense of belonging in your body, feeling ease and joy in your skin regardless of pain or restrictions
Module 2: Sacral Chakra — Awaken Sacred Sexuality
The sacred truth of the sacral chakra is that sexual energy is sacred, a key aspect to your relationship to power.
Shame and guilt make you powerless, creating an energetic armor around your hips that traps your life-force. You’ll begin to loosen the armor in this module to liberate your life-force and free energy in your body and your energetic field.
The sacral chakra is also the realm of duality — male and female. The imbalance between masculine and feminine energies has tilted in favor of the masculine for eons, leading us to value doing over being... the active principle of yang over the receptive principle of yin.
You’ll dance to harmonize and marry the two flames — the intuitive, life-bearing, being aspect of your psyche with the active and intellectual doing aspect.
Ultimately, your dance becomes a lovemaking with the Beloved — the union of spirit and matter in your body in ever-expanding, sublime, wild, and tender ways.
As you reconnect with the sacred sexual energy of the sacral chakra, you’ll:
- Shake to purify and clear yourself of yourself — and disidentify with the limited “separate” self
- Awaken your life force and let it ignite your whole body, energizing and uplifting you through Shake to Liberate
- Open yourself to the sheer radiance of eros, reclaim your sexuality as sacred, and freely, ecstatically express your sensuality as natural and holy
- Activate and open your sacral chakra, and begin to balance the energies of yin and yang — feminine and masculine inside yourself
- Feel and begin to embody your own beauty with radiant confidence
- Elevate yourself and feel energized throughout the day
Module 3: Solar Plexus Chakra — Flamenco to Activate Self-Authority
Rumi said, “life is the sound of your inner dialogue.” In other words, your life amplifies how you feel about yourself — and echoes your thoughts and feelings back to you.
You’ll explore the solar plexus’ sacred truth that self-love is your anchor... and learn to activate your center to access a point of light that can expand into a sun — whose radiance rests upon how you feel about yourself.
The more you regard yourself and your body with kindness and love, the warmer, and more radiant will the sun emanate in your body, your life, and out into the world. This is why when you don’t feel good about yourself, the world appears dim and gloomy.
You’ll also learn movements inspired by fiery flamenco that activate self-authority. As you claim your power you will realize there is no room for victimhood and blame.
As you dance with the awareness of your solar plexus chakra, you’ll:
- Find your center, your womb-dantian, and develop the ability to initiate your movements from your center with Activate the Inner Sun
- Activate self-authority and sovereignty as the Queen of your own Queendom and the King of our own Kingdom through the fiery and empowering movements of flamenco
- Boost your confidence and self-esteem
- Build resilience and adaptability through your nervous system
- Awaken and enliven your inherent joy regardless of the circumstance
- Embody your true strength as you burn away unworthiness and begin to express yourself with courage, compassion, responsibility, and stewardship toward the greater eco-field
Module 4: Heart Chakra — Open the Portal to the Infinite
Love is divine power and the most powerful state of being. This is the sacred truth of the heart chakra.
The midpoint of chakras, your heart chakra mediates between body and spirit where you can tune in to your subtle body, become more energy than matter, and enter the quantum field of oneness.
In this module, you’ll learn about the sacred physiology of the heart, and be introduced to the Sufi Path. For the Sufis, life is a love affair with the Beloved and the heart is the home of the Beloved — the “I AM” presence. Through falling in love with the Beloved, you polish your heart of the debris of separateness and step into your true self.
Your heart has an electromagnetic field that extends beyond the physical heart by about five to eight feet. What you create in your heart influences yourself and the world around you. This is why all healing begins in the heart.
As you journey deep into your heart, you’ll:
- Explore the Sufi Path as the path of living love
- Experience your heart as the gateway to the quantum field of infinite consciousness
- Learn from the wisdom of your anatomical heart
- Activate and open your heart chakra through the Waves of Love — and experience light as liquid
- Dance to let your body become an instrument playing a love song
- Learn how to maintain an open heart by remaining grounded and centered, and create balance between giving and receiving love
Module 5: Throat Chakra — Whirl to Surrender to Love
The throat chakra teaches us to surrender personal will to Divine will. It is about finding your authentic voice, and listening — attuning to inner guidance. It bridges the head and heart to create coherence.
One of our toughest armors is around our throat. You’ll learn to loosen this armor to activate your voice and creativity.
You’ll be initiated into Sama (whirling dance) through a simple method that allows everyone access to this profound Sufi practice. An inner journey to the Beloved, Sama dissolves the limited mind into the unlimited ocean of presence, and you begin to simply be... a channel for compassion and wisdom.
The science of physics states that matter is actually space spinning. How profound to spin consciously, activate supernatural powers, and upgrade ourselves!.
Rumi’s poetry flowered while whirling in perfect rhyme and meter — a testament to the power of Sama to receive direct transmissions from the Source, and create body-heart-mind coherence.
As you activate your throat chakra and its sacred voice, you’ll also:
- Ground and center yourself in preparation for whirling
- Learn how to whirl without getting dizzy and persevere in the spin for a sustained period of time
- Learn the philosophy and short history of Sama as a spiritual path
- Create unity, harmony, and coherence between your body, heart, and mind through the profound Sufi movement meditation of Sama
- Begin to surrender your mind and become empty
- Become silent and still enough to listen to your inner voice of guidance through a seated meditation following the Sama
Module 6: Third Eye Chakra — Activate the Pineal Gland & Experience Dance as Invisible Architecture
The Third Eye chakra teaches us to see only the truth. Considered the mother of all the chakras, this is where you are beckoned to open yourself to the unknown and expand your mind to gain wisdom that can guide your actions. As the center of intuition, you can access profound inner vision and insight when your pineal gland is awakened and activated... including dissolving the illusion of separation between you and the world.
“Walk with the universe,” say the Navajo. Walk in beauty, feeling the harmony between yourself, the world around you, and all of existence.
As you deepen your journey into Sama, you’ll activate intuition and insight, and begin to experience the stillpoint at the center of all movement at the core of your being.
By approaching dance as invisible architecture and becoming aware of the patterns as you move, your dance will become a powerful way to shift, influence, and shape consciousness.
In dancing with your Third Eye chakra focus, you’ll:
- Explore and activate the pineal gland as your inner or Third Eye through special focus, as well as the Sama
- Deepen the practice of Sama and begin to receive direct transmissions from the source
- Dissolve the illusion of separation between yourself and the world, and loosen your identification with the limited self through Sama
- Begin to surrender the patterns of your limited mind to become empty and silent through Sama and seated meditation
- Learn to observe yourself moving, becoming aware of the shapes that you create
- Cultivate inner detachment and tune in to the power of dance to influence and shape consciousness
- Realize the stillness that is always already present at the core of your being
Module 7: Crown Chakra — Reside in the NOW Beyond Name & Form
The sacred truth of the crown chakra is to live in the present moment. It requires courage, trust and a constant disidentification from our limited self... for to be in the present moment is to lovingly release the past.
Your crown chakra is your connection to spirit — the greater field of consciousness — that motivates you to seek an intimate connection to the Divine in everything you do. Sacred dance is about experiencing this connection.
During the concluding module, you’ll learn to move in spirals and integrate the learning from previous modules. The spiral is a sacred pattern seen in all living forms — from galaxies to our DNA molecules. It is the way nature resolves conflict and restores balance.
The visible world flowers from the invisible through the spiral. At the innermost level is divine mystery, and at the outermost, physical forms of matter.
The spiral is the most advanced human movement, engaging all the chakras — which are spiraling themselves.
As you embody the sacred truth of the crown chakra, you’ll:
- Learn how moving in spirals brings you into balance — and teaches you how to remain present, grounded, and centered in the midst of chaos
- Discover the sacred and the unfathomable in the still depths of your being beyond concepts, dogmas, conditioned activity, and all preferences
- Activate deep inner surrender, and being thoughtlessly present beyond sensations of comfort and discomfort, pleasure and aversion
- Experience an intimate connection with the Beloved through dance
- Be here in the now and surrendered to what is as you access inner peace and joy, regardless of circumstance
- Integrate all teachings from past modules
