Dance: A Spiritual Affair

A place where body and soul meet.

In Dance: A Spiritual Affair, Donna Goddard shares her journey as an adult student of dance—a path far more than physical movement. With grace and insight, she explores dance as a spiritual practice: one that grounds the body, quiets the mind, and opens the heart to freedom and connection.

Dance invites us into presence. It is where we meet ourselves honestly, meet others soulfully, and meet the Divine in the space between steps.

For anyone who feels the call to move—to trust the body, to live in the moment, to be unapologetically themselves—this book is a companion, a gift, and a reminder:

You were meant to dance.
The dance—and the Divine—are waiting for you.

Dance: A Spiritual Affair is a luminous, grounded, and deeply felt book. It blends personal memoir, spiritual teaching, philosophy, and poetic reflection—all through the embodied experience of dance. What makes it special is how seamlessly it moves between the very physical (muscles, injury, aging, energy) and the ineffable (divine flow, inner stillness, destiny, and love). The writing is graceful and wise, with a tone that feels intimate and trustworthy. This is a book of presence. It invites the reader to become more conscious of themselves, their body, their longings, and their soul’s eternal, ever-exciting movement.”
