“Dance is not necessarily
Graceful
Pretty
or Spectacular.
Dance can be
Grotesque
Ugly
Clumsy
Funny
Frightening
and Conflicted.
It can
Stomp
Fall
Attack
Clutch
and Reach.
It can
Open
Close
Tip-Toe
Crawl
Twist
Turn
Pound
Jump
Run
or Skip.
We can Move Together
or Alone.
We can Move Backwards
Sideways
Up and Down.
Movement is happening
everywhere
all the Time.
It is the Motion of our Cells
the Pulse of our Blood
the Rhythm of our Breath.
It is, as well,
the Ocean Waves
rising and falling
and
the alternating patterns
of Night and Day.
Movement is Life
and
Movement is the source of Dance.
Any Body
no matter how Old or Young
in whatever physical condition
has a capacity to Move
even if it is just your little Finger
or a Movement
carried as an Image
in your Mind’s Eye.”
Anna Halprin
I hope you Dance this New Year!
