dancing into INTENTION

“For the body tells all to him who knows the language, and doesn’t lie.”

_Kai Ashante Wilson

Intention is like an inner compass, guiding us toward how we want to feel and experience life. Unlike goals, which are specific, measurable, and outcome-driven, intentions allow us to move with freedom, flowing toward the creative force that shapes our existence. Intentions arise from the heart rather than the mind, opening space for fluidity and transformation rather than rigid expectations. But how do we truly know what we are feeling?

We must learn to trust the subtle messages of our bodies—the whispers of intuition, the gentle pull of an unspoken knowing. Dance offers a profound way to connect with these inner signals. When we surrender to movement, we bypass the analytical mind and access a deeper wisdom. Just as a dance unfolds organically through time and space, so too can life flow when guided by our inner compass—quiet, ineffable, yet undeniably powerful.

Dancing with intention is an invitation to embody what we seek—not as a distant goal, but as a lived experience. In movement, we become the essence of our desires, each step a declaration of how we choose to engage with life. When we dance, we align with our deepest being, not as something shaped from the outside, but as a continuous poem of self-creation, written in motion.
