A New Consciousness for Dance
I started this blog as a documentaion of my journey toward a greater understanding of who I am as a creative person dancer, yogini, chef. I have been dancing since I was six and looking at almost 35 years of dancing. Lately though, I found it harder to lie to myself about what and who I am as a a mover. Looking at my own technique and the fact that dance, as I teach it, is more of a practice and not just about a bunch of steps, I am challenging myself to expand beyond the box as a teacher. My foundation is to develop a core sense that not only allows the dancer to dance stronger but longer and more mindful. Right now I am studying Ashtanga yoga and it's discpline has opened my heart and mind to all the possibilites of what movement is and how as a teacher I can expand that for those I am working with. Just some thoughts...
