My mum always said, "If you can draw a line you can paint a picture"
I think its true to say that if you can move you can dance.
Dance is for everyone!
There are masters like Michelangelo, Dali, Turner and Warhol who when we view their masterpieces.
Their exquisiteness is intimidating.
"I can't draw" you say!
Watching old films we see: Ginger Roger and Fred Astaire, Cyd Cherise and Gene Kelly
Glide effortlessly around the dance floor as if floating on a cushion of air.
It's easy to feel that you can never do that with your "clumsy feet".
Art and Dance are expressions of our souls.
Whether moving a paintbrush or pencil on a canvas or a page.
Or creating a masterpiece with our bodies on the dance floor or the stage.
Both of them mediums of expressions
Communicate a message; tell a story
They capture the moment; they preserve it for posterity
Everyone has a message; everyone has their story
As in any field there are professionals who have studied and trained for many years,
guided in their crafts by masters with experience. They know all the rules and the right terminology.
But these pros are not the sum total of the art.
There is beauty in the scribbles of a tot who says he's drawn a house or their family.
There is grace in the not to rhythmic ramba by the beginner ballroom dancer.
Tall or short, large or slight, whether we can run and jump or we need some mobility aid -
We ALL can dance
