Roots and Stars

"It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves."

_William Shakespear

We are not animals nor angels, and yet we are both.

Through dance this paradox becomes tangible.

Every movement anchors us in the body’s weight, in the solid presence of feet connecting to the earth. At the same time, our movements can open a space of expansion. To dance is to activate our imagination reaching beyond what we can hold, touching the infinite sky of dreams and possibilities. Dance weaves together gravity and lightness, presence and transcendence, grounding and flight.

It is here, in this spiral of movement, that body and cosmos meet.

_Christos Daskalakos
