Dance Manifesto

Dance is living. Dance is breathing. Dance is movement. Dance is cessation.

Dance is freedom, happiness, determination. Dance is fleeing, hellish, discouraging.

Dance is your first day of ballet class, your first kiss, your one true love.

Dance is your first feelings of pain, frustration. Dance is your first incessant endurance of

 rejection.

Dance doesn’t come from money, status, age, or dare I say talent.

These are but a murmur in the ears of an artist.

Dance is ____________. Dance is _____________. Dance is living.
