What is dance?
A painting living,
a stillness moving
in between
two breaths…
Equilibrium
Mantras have a profound and transformative effect on both body and soul and therefore they create a special vibe that turns movement into meditative experience and dance into spiritual practice. They evoke a deep feeling of balance, peace, grounding and letting go of everything that may bind, grasp or insist. Dance becomes a beautiful process of constant search of loosing and restoring balance and rearranging whatever needs to be rearranged. A floating sensation takes body, mind and spirit and leads deeper and deeper into itslef.
Sea witch
Waves have their internal rhythm. Sea storms play their own music and dancer’s body and spirit may yield to that turbulent yet enchanting tune and may become as tempestuous, raging and untamed yet beautiful, free and wild as the waves, the wind and the sea itself connecting to the inner and authentic feminine energy which is both destructive and creative. Woman like Nature is both violent and peaceful, unpredictable and capricious, generous and consuming and divine in all her aspects even when she appears more like a witch than a nymph.
It is a beautiful experience for a dancer to dive into unfamiliar music unheared until the moment of the dance. The interpretation of the unknown tune and melody is uninhibited by previous experience, anticipation or habit. There is only a liberating and inspiring feeling of being taken by the music and leave movements to compose and arrange themselves led only by intuition and listening with all your senses.
