About this experience

Coffin dancing funerals

A farewell filled with joy and rhythm. The celebration continues through music, movement and one final shared moment of lightness. Coffin dancing deliberately moves away from a farewell that is only quiet and sombre, creating instead a powerful celebration of life. Drumming, dance and gospel accompany the person who has died on their final journey, allowing grief to move gradually towards memory, gratitude and even a smile. The pallbearers' striking choreography, also known as the “Coffin Dancer”, honours the person in an unusual way. It creates a moment in which family and friends can come together once more, feel able to laugh and recognise that joy and farewell need not exclude one another. For many, this is exactly what the person they love would have wanted: one final celebration of togetherness.
