Safe Piercing for Performance masterclass

Wednesday 23rd May

 

He started to take steps through thin air, slowly at first but then almost running. He moved like a ballerina with absolute grace. I watched in amazement as he danced on the ropes that were suspended to his flesh. Every so often he would fall still before once again taking up what I can only call a spiritual dance. I was witness to someone crossing over into another dimension, to someone leaving his outer shell and taking an incredible journey.
