Day 1574 dancing in the negative mind frame today i was in a space that is in public, yet it's part of the private. I added the Phillip glass track because I was estimating and counting the whole time in my head, why I was dancing, when building security would ask me to leave.
As part of the Make a Start Residency, I will be developing and working on my daily dancing process at @lucyguerininc . This will combine vintage videos with live dancing. This will occur between July 21 and July 28. Would you be interested in coming and collaborating?
The Daily Dance today came through a heavy fog of depression. There were so many things that needed to get done, and at times it felt like I was fighting my way out of a bag — tangled, restricted, trying to find space to breathe and move.
But even in that state, the dance was there. A small act of pushing through. A reminder that movement can still exist inside pressure, exhaustion, and confusion. Sometimes the Daily Dance isn’t expansive or free — sometimes it’s simply the act of showing up and moving through the weight of the day.
The Daily Dance is a journey.
With so much going on in life, sometimes the practice is reduced to small moments — a few minutes here and there, in whatever location I find myself.
But it remains.
And it is always wonderful to step off the path for a moment and simply free move.
