The great American dancer Martha
Graham(1894-1994) once said; " Dance is the hidden language of the soul,
of the body." Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're
here we should dance. There is that potential for a great moment whereby
through
movement you achieve an integration of
mind, body, and spirit which is truly transcendent.
These pages promote your active participation in the dance of life. You
can find many way here to develop your dance moves or an opportunity to
make plans to go to a festival and "just dance."
