I’ve been working on a choreography for Emma Shapplin’s The Inferno for months now. The song stirs something in me that badly wants out. A version of the song is embedded below.
After months of reading, thinking, listening, and moving, the idea is finally beginning to find some form in motion. I need to finish it.
The quote in the image above was taken from John Ciardi’s translation.
Yes, there’s a lot aflame around here lately. It’s an energy that needs to be channeled somewhere safe, like dance.

Indeed, dance is freeing, balancing and fun. I wish people would dance more… I find that for lack of dance lovers around, I dance with my dog, Dancer, yup, that’s his name, interestingly, I gave him that name at 8 weeks old, not knowing if he danced, he just looked like an elegant dancer, sure enough… he dances!
Great song and image too.

I wish more people would dance too – it’s so good for the body, mind, and spirit.
Happy waltzing to you and Dancer!
