✨ What is Dance? ✨ Dance is commonly defined as the rhythmic expression of the #body moving through time and space. It is one of the oldest forms of human expression, existing even before language, and reflects our most instinctive connection to ourselves, each other, and the world around us. Whether used for ritual, healing, celebration, #storytelling , or pure joy… ~ Dance is #art. ~ Dance is culture. ~ Dance is history. ~ Dance is wellness. ~ Dance is #community. Across every #culture and tradition, dance carries the essence of the people and places it comes from, continuously evolving as each generation reinterprets and reimagines it.

A little #throwback to @dongitanosoy Juan Carlos Castellón, and I, diving into a piece inspired by Philip Glass’s contemporary classical magic. His music was the backdrop as we explored partnering and contemporary dance in our own movement language. @dance_neiu @neiumusicanddance @neiualumni #tbt #dancechicago #chicagodance #contemporarydance
