| When I first danced the rhythms there wasn’t anyone doing weekly classes anywhere in Europe. Makes me feel old! It did mean that if I wanted to dance, I had to get it together for myself, which taught me something.
I see that dancing on your own (with music or silence, either is great) is generally (not always!) less exciting and high energy as going to a class. However, when you take 100% responsibility for your experience, without anyone else to distract you, you begin to acquire a certain quality of connection with the rhythms maps and the spirit of the work that I reckon you could never get from just going to classes and workshops. Try it! The more you do it the clearer it will be, and you might find that next time you go to a class you have an extra mysterious something to tap into that wasn’t there before. |
