“Bliss is a state of complete euphoria and ecstasy which can only be experienced not described with words. Bliss has to be danced!”
_Christos Daskalakos
Blessed is such an old fashioned word but so appropriate when we reflect on the things we take for granted. Every time we are on the dance floor free from political and other cultural factors we are free to dance. Even more this beautiful body, the instrument of our creation is able to move, to dance and to express itself. These are powerful drives and I am moved by the efforts that the human spirit makes to dance. The grace with which we sometimes move is testimony to the creative instinct in each of us which yearns to give itself expression.
When we dance we are connecting with life itself in all its facets – physical, emotional and mental. The experience of dance when we are present is to become aware of our wholeness and presence in this body and by extension in this life. Very few people have the opportunity to stop and reflect on the grace and blessing that is life. When we dance and we lose ourselves at the centre of life then we access a place in which we are blessed. Blessed to dance, blessed to feel, blessed to express. Not only does this bring joy and a smile onto our face but often extends into a place of bliss.
