Hello, My Dancers,
So much going on these past few weeks. I feel a bit like I’ve been swept up in a whirlwind. Or a blender. And, yet, life goes on, and I choose to dance. Movement and dancing is my way of claiming my life in unsteady times and saying, “Now I Am.” It is my respite from the storm and my affirmation that life is to be lived. And, when I dance with all of you, it is my way of saying that community will continue to come together to mourn, to celebrate and to be.
This month in classes, we are focusing on Agility. It is defined as nimbleness or the ability to change the body’s position efficiently and requires the integration of isolated movement skills using a combination of balance, coordination, speed, reflexes, strength and endurance. Agility is in essence the ability to stop and start again. In the studio, we experience and build our physical understanding and awareness of agility. In the world outside ZenSpace, we step into whole being agility - body, mind, emotion, spirit.
How do you experience agility throughout your day?
Please forgive me! There will be no class tomorrow on Columbus Day, October 9 :( My big is turning 19 tomorrow and we are going to check our mental agility with an Escape Room experience.
After tomorrow, we will dance as usual on Saturdays at 11 a.m. and of course, ongoing on Mondays at 6:15 p.m.
Also, I encourage you to join me in more movement with Hip Hop on Tuesdays with Saquan and Cardio Dance on Wednesdays, both at 7:30 p.m.
More Dance = Happier, Healthier YOU!
Amy
