My entire life, I've danced. There are millions of people in the world who can say those words. And the great part is, almost all of them mean something different. There are people who are fantastic dancers in almost any setting. If there is music on...anything with a rhythm, actually... they can move to it in a way that becomes art. Then there are dancers who specialize in one genre. There are technically trained dancers, dancers who break outside of technique, and dancers who follow no rules whatsoever. There are ballerinas, modern, hip hop, jazz, tap, lyrical, Irish dancers. There are people who dance at clubs for fun...there are people who perform for millions...an there are people who dance as a form of worship.

SO. In honor of my favorite art--and what I would love to be doing right now--here are some of my favorite dance quotes.

"To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking. " -Agnes de Mille

"The dancer's body is simply the luminous manifestation of the soul." -Isadora Duncan

"Dance is the hidden language of the soul of the body." - Martha Graham

I GOT TO RECORD TODAY!
I felt like Britney Spears.
It was pretty much the coolest thing, and made me feel a little more like a musician than a girl trying to sing...ish.

SO cool.
