“To dance is to be in tune with the steps of life.”
_Sasha Azevedo
What is it that you want out of life? Deep down are we all not really seeking to be connected to life through love, to enjoy life with peace of mind and experience life with joy?
Since March 2020 it seems as if we have been thrown into an abyss of fear. Sadly some are still lost in there, while others have slowly emerged. I believe that dance has been a powerful way to claim back our life: to move from fear towards the light. Of course, it is not easy; there are always events around us that remind us we are living within a pandemic. But we always have a choice on how we interact with life. We can choose to close down and banish our hearts to the space of fear. Or, we can take courage and learn to live within the adversity.
The call to action has been the dance. The weapons to fight fear have been the dance. And, the road to reclaiming life has been the dance.
I reflect back on the past two years and am honoured to have witnessed courage, and through the dance to have witnessed the reclaiming of joy. I have marvelled at hearts that open and fly. I have been moved by hearts that have reached out to connect with love.
Dance has made this all possible – the call to action is, dance, to reclaim life, dance to move from fear to joy, and dance to empower ourselves.
