The Dance

To return to harmony…we must realign our gestures into those of dancers. We must become beings who do not wish to control life, but only to listen to its music, and dance it.

from The Great Cosmic Mother by Monica Sjoo and Barbara Mor

We cover music, poetry, literature and other arts all the time here. I thought it was time for some dancing. I’m absolutely addicted to the tv show “So You Think You Can Dance.” Here’s Jamie and Hok dancing “The Hummingbird and the Flower”

Here’s Neil and Sabra doing a “Power Lunch”

And here’s Lacey and Neil dancing to “Time,” a piece choreographed by Mia Michaels to envision a meeting in heaven between she and her father.

I’ve also always loved figure-skating. And for much the same reasons. Here’s Kurt Browning, my favorite, bringing the two together.

Oh, and Kurt has quite a sense of humor.

Finally, if you think figure-skating can’t be cool, check out Kurt skating to The Tragically Hip.
