Creative Dancer
"Imagine then a dancer who, after a long study, prayer and inspiration, has attained such a degree of understanding that his or her body is simply the luminous manifestation of soul; whose body dances in accordance with a music heard inwardly, in an expression of something out of another, profounder world. This is the truly creative dancer.. speaking in movement out of him or herself and out of something greater than our selves." quote from Isadora Duncan(1878-1927)
+)
We express ourselves differently and each day to day body movement, express how we’re feelings inside, at work at play or on any circumstances.
the same goes with dancing, when I’m happy I’ll jump up high but when I’m sad, my movement becomes sso slow reflecting on my inner feelings, and when Im stress yupeee feel like to yell n listen to the heavy rock music HAHAHAHA
Well there you go, a bit about me =)
But the main point of creative dancer is to go beyond your feelings- to meditate n consciously feel your movement without thinking….. +)
To create with no purpose to create, to feel without judging and goes with the flow of music +)
Allrite Am I confusing some of you
You’re welcome to share your opinion +)

“To create with no purpose to create, to feel without judging and goes with the flow of music +)”
Well i thought about it a bit differently. I feel producrive and work everything out perfectly well and quickly when i feel good. The feeling of nothing, nothing bother me any more, all i have to do is performing my job. It is not “create without purpose, or feel with out judging and go with the flow”, but it is when i have attain a high level of calmness, attentiveness, that make me react so freely so that i do not just simply perform a task but do it creatively.
This is my question of: is it because we have significant preparation so we pass exam with A+ or we got it simply because we were so calm after days of mediation?

in reply to ngoc hong. I think for exam, it will be both calmness and knowledge gained from preparation. Life is about balance, yin & yang. happiness is achieved when u comply with laws of nature. study,knowledge = yang, ying = calmness

Hmmmmmmmm last time i dance with u in that thingy at roundhouse, i still remember how silly looking u look. hehe Dancing hmm yeah it does express our personality i think. I know this dude that likes to go dancing every week but everytime i go with him, he dances like a log. so boring lol i dont think he is very creative or energetic. and other people i know who dont go dancing at all but they seem pretty expert. so yeah. Do u know theres this new ballroom dancing thing where people looks like flying but without ropes of course. I want to see it.
