Movement never lies

It is a barometer telling the state of the soul´weather to all who can read it

Martha Graham

“We should consider that a day has been lost in which we have not danced not once,” Nietzsche

“Dance is the rhythmic movement of any or all parts of the body in accordance with a scheme of the individual or concerted action as an expresion of emotions or ideas” (British Encyclopedia , Vol 7, p. 49).

“Current studies of “dance therapy” show that the dance in all its forms has curative applications:

-When we dance we become aware of our body and how it relates to others.

-It activates the spontaneity and self confidence. It has especiall healing properties for timid people, as it represents an alternative way to communicate.

-It’s a way to release tension, both physical and psychological.

-It helps us know our own feelings transforming them as movements in space.”

(Nietzsche para estresados, Allan Percy, Ed. DeBolsillo)
