"The world has changed: it did not change without your prayers without your faith without your determination to believe in liberation and kindness; without your dancing through the years that had no beat.”
- Alice Walker
Let’s take a moment to reflect as we reach the final dance session for this year. A year of many challenges that turned our world upside down. Yet for many of us we kept dancing. The intensity and voracity of dance to support, transform and shape our lives is exactly what we needed in these difficult times. Weekly in our dance session we have connected with the power of movement and music to create the dances that give us the opportunity to experience our own inner strength and wisdom that give us the creativity to negotiate our present challenges.
Dance can also bring inspiration, creativity and growth. I hope that our fiercest of spirits breaks through to 2021 to leave behind the THANATOS archetype and connect again to life, living and connection.
I loved the suggested video 'Life is a dance'. Through the dance we are able to express our youthfulness, vigour and joy, even though we are not that young anymore. The dancers in this video are truly inspirational and their ages range between 58 and 77. Well worth watching!
