“Love in Action” is a phrase used by many people and I think it is truly apt when it comes to dancing. At so many levels we have to be ‘in love’ when we dance. We love our self enough to celebrate and express who we are through the dance. We love the other who we invite into our dances. Dance opens the heart not only to love but to feeling. Through the dance we sensitise our self to connect again to how we are feeling. But more importantly dance encourages us to feel a deep sense of love for life itself.
In this world dominated by a focus on head-stuff we can sometimes be disconnected from our body, remembering maybe for a moment at the end of the day when we permit ourselves to feel our exhausted self. Being connected to the body through dance, we open become more in tune with how we are feeling throughout the day giving us an opportunity to modulate our life so that we don’t reach that point of exhaustion.
The cherry on top of this cake is that when we connect to how we are feeling, we don’t have to be reactive, or fall into negative patterns. When we gently allow our heart to speak we discover that we are really beings of love. We are more comfortable in life when we open to this feeling. We feel more expanded and life becomes poetically beautiful. Dance is then a celebration of life.
When you explore the love within your own life, you can start amplifying and sharing it with others.
Dancing to change the world, one dance at a time!
