Poetry of Motion:
The Body and Remembrance

Zuleikha

“Come, come whoever you are,
This caravan is not of despair.”

- Rumi

Join Storydancer Zuleikha in this very special evening workshop that combines movement, the sacred space inside the breath, and the inspiration of the mystics. The workshop is a prelude to CIIS’s The Rumi Concert: Only Breath, to be held on Thursday, November 17, at San Francisco’s Herbst Theatre. Zuleika is one of the concert’s featured performers.

Everyone is welcome. No prior experience in meditation, music, or dance is required—only a desire to open the heart and stir the soul.

Zuleikha is a performance artist and teacher in the art of movement and rhythmic language to inspire and increase awareness of the body and health. She has trained intensively for many years with master teachers of healing and movement in Eastern and Western traditions. Zuleikha works with thousands of people of many nationalities in the United States and abroad. Her enthusiasm and love of movement bring people into an awareness of cultural differences, as well as of their common human heritage.
