Enjoy Each Step

When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It’s to enjoy each step along the way.

--Wayne Dyer

This is Power

To dance is to be out of yourself: larger, more beautiful, and more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking.
--Agnes de Mille

Access Other Worlds

Dance has always been a way of accessing the other worlds, especially whirling or spinning.

--Caitlin Matthews
