I have been into Duncan technique lately, because of my dear friend and sister in the dance, Paola Blanton. This quote got me thinking today:
”It is the mission of all art
to express the highest and most beautiful ideals of man.”
- Isadora Duncan
If we use dance for anything but the highest ideals, then our dancing becomes a portal for negativity. If we as dancers can only advance ourselves by stealing instead of rightfully being given opportunities, then we shall reap what we sow, no?
Aim high.
”There are likewise three kinds of dancers:
first, those who consider dancing as a sort of gymnastic drill,
made up of impersonal and graceful arabesques;
second, those who, by concentrating their minds,
lead the body into the rhythm of a desired emotion,
expressing a remembered feeling or experience.
And finally, there are those who convert the body
into a luminous fluidity,
surrendering it to the inspiration of the soul.”
- Isadora Duncan
I want to be the third kind of dancer, how about you?
Other great quotes:
”No, I can’t explain the dance to you;
if I could tell you what it meant,
there would be no point in dancing it.”
”Dancing: the highest intelligence in the freest body.”
- Isadora Duncan
