Journey of Self-Discovery

[Sagitta]

"The truth of who you are rests between two very important moments: your first breath and your last breath. Somewhere between birth and death we work out the [reason] of our existence on this earth. We come to a sense of our identity. To humbly be in possession of ourselves is a grace."

Sr. Macrina Widerkehr, O.S.B.

I/ you could say the truth of who we are as dancers rests between two very important moments: our first and last dance. Somewhere in between we work out who we are as dancers and why we dance... Once we have a sense of dance identity, yet are humbly part of the music and partnership when we dance - three in one - we have reached true "dancing" grace...

What would you dance if you knew it was to be the last?

And if you could redo the first, what would it be?

[Sagitta]

My first was a swing dance. Actually trying to do ECS / jitterbug when everyone else was doing super fast cool lindy!! :oops: I would never want to redo my first, because that's what made it special. I wouldn't want it to be any different.

As for my last... Right now a bachata, with intrenational rhumba a second. A romantic latin dance. That's what I want!! With someone special too. That actually is more important. Having that danec nirvana.

What about you GR?

[Genesius Redux]

My first dance was a rumba. And for my last dance, I think I would want to dance it once more, with my first teacher.

Or maybe a bolero.
