Soul Motion: Creative Expression
Soul Motion provides a supportive environment, encouraging each student to experiment and freely express their unique dance with both structure and open-ended permission as guides. When moving in the space/time field, students require landmarks and intervals to shape the dance. Respected as movement artists, students are encouraged to re-arrange the familiar, stay open to surprise, and grow in perception and expression.

2006

We can begin again and again!

What if these words on the page became a portal into the work and the wonder of a mind completely comfortable with not having to know, not having to stand prepared for any and all possibilities?

Can the place of grace of a soul in motion have as ground a permeable and flexible substance that can allow the dance to shape and shift according to the present rhythm of the moment? A rhythm that we do not get to rehearse beforehand but, on occasion, we do recognize as something we may have danced before or at least witnessed someone else.

Consider the tremendous terrain and the terror of such a grace space to do the everyday dance.

Can you imagine the reliefs it might offer to the countless numbers of us who freeze frame the filling of our days with caution, suspicion, and more caution?

Oh, the longing to be with what is as I dance the everyday. The spacious times that accompany my wondrous waltzing with my family, my co-workers, or the people I meet and greet on my daily journey becomes the footing for a fall-free traipse around any situation.

So you may wonder how we get to this place of “just this”. I have prepared a formula!

Take four steps forward, two back, and then three more forward.

Allow for forgiveness for any misstep, backward step, or stepping on others’ toes.

Create ample room for gratitude for the ability to step in ANY direction.

See the only possibility to act as a Love Call or a Call for Love.

Drink plenty of water... stay fluid!

Hug your kids and partner often... conscious creation of positive experience.

Give appreciation to co-workers at every opportunity…we all do the best we can.

See everyone, EVERYONE as a voice of the Beloved.

Begin Again.... vinn
