Choreography in the Community….week 2….They made hand dances in small groups. I loved watching them teach and learn from each other and seeing how much joy they got from creating and sharing.

This week I began my Choreography in the Community course at Prescott College. The title of the performance piece we will create is “Letters to Self.” My 10 students met with 13 middle school students and 8 elders. What a joy! It is good for everyone to dance with different ages of people. The middle schoolers were more focused, the elders were energized and the college students were challenged to step into leadership. The atmosphere was simply glowing. We meet every Thursday until the beginning of May.
