Gracie Mandujano was born in Honduras, a land rooted in ancient Mayan traditions, and from an early age felt called to reconnect with life’s true purpose and the depth of her courageous spirit. Guided by yoga and dance, she returned to her physical body and divine power, dedicating herself to ancestral arts and becoming a healer and light worker. Her lineage eventually led her back to the ways of her ancestors, committing to the Camino Rojo and the Danza de la Luna, where she studies traditional forms of ceremony, prayer, and healing. Uniting these paths, Gracie and Estelle co-created a series of transformative containers under the school Modern Organic Dance & Sacred Arts, sharing this sacred space of essential growth with women and men across the world.

In this episode you will learn about:

• Gracie’s journey from dentistry to discovering tribal fusion and Oriental dance.

• The hidden energetics behind “inward” and “outward” movements in Oriental dance.

• How class energy, rhythm choices, and even the moon cycle shape her teaching.

• The story of healing a pre-cancer diagnosis through intentional dance practice.

• The birth of “Modern Organic Dance” and why belly dance didn’t feel like the right label.
