Dear dancers,
Unprecedented has been a word often used to describe 2020 and the impacts of the Covid-19 Pandemic – both individually and collectively. Life over zoom and digital connection has taken the place of gathering and dancing with each other.
In her book Maps of Ecstasy: The Healing Power of Movement, author Gabriel Roth writes, “Dancing, singing, storytelling, and silence are the four universal healing salves.” Healers throughout the ages have questioned, “When did you stop dancing?” In these unprecedented times, I pose the question to each of us.
