Inside the Dancer’s Art. Rose Eichenbaum

      When you dance, your soul soars. Time does not exist. It can be centuries or just a second. It feels like there is no war in the world, no hate, no disease. It feels like anything you care to imagine.

       Robert La Fosse

      I was only twenty-three when I found myself deeply conflicted—become a movie star or prima ballerina. I knew if I were to pursue acting I would not be able to keep up with my dance training. To be a ballerina you have to be in top form and possess a victorious attitude toward every aspect of life. After much soul searching I decided to stop dancing. I gave away my toe shoes and informed MGM executives that I wouldn’t dance anymore. I was heartbroken.

      If there is no passion behind your movement, the audience will just sit there and watch you, but they won’t be captivated by you.

      Dance is a spiritual language we can use to feed our souls, communicate with each other, and show respect for all peoples.

      Art is created out of things you’re reminded of. It’s associative. Dance without reference is unlikely to evoke an emotional response.

      Dance is very much like language. Its power is not in the meaning of the words but rather in the syntax, in the structure.
