Our view on
dance
There was a time when women
gathered together to celebrate life through dance. They would come, young and
old, from all walks of life to celebrate together. They brought with them all of
their life experiences. One by one they would step into the circle to tell their
story through the dance as the others looked on. Then they would all dance
together in a captivating union of energies.
They danced for joy and sorrow and for everything in between. They celebrated
the union of lives, the changing of the seasons, their ascent into womanhood,
life to be, and life that had passed.
They danced to wildly beating drums, to softly playing flutes, to the rustle of
leaves, to the wind and rain, and to the beating of their own hearts.
In the chaos that is our modern world we have lost touch with the simple things.
We don’t notice the changing seasons in the rush to get through the next day,
week, month, even year. We don’t take the time to de-stress. We don’t take the
time to really get to know people, even ourselves. We simply don’t take the time
to celebrate life.
Through dance we can reconnect to the Earth, to each other, and to ourselves. We
can again discover that place where dance is a celebration of life in a circle
of support, camaraderie, and friendship. That place is here now.
