comment by teacher

her arms make her move, bring her in the space, givs her
imagination, don't you think she has a bowl with water in
her hands, and she must take care that the water isn't
fallling out of it, and still this does not stop her from
turning, on the contrary.

this woman loves the element of water. it is as if she is
swimming in the space, as if her body moves the water
around her, and this kind of movements through the
water gets her going, gives her glimpses of fire, of a
burning motor to keep moving.

l;;ast night i saw the magic flute in salzburg, the
alchemistic story of combining th energy of water and fire
into gold.

and i am wondering, what will happen when you do not
start with the arms, but one time with the feet, and let
them pulsate on the floor as if they are dancing on fire,
what will this do to your way of dancing, when you add
this to your watery arm approach. will it make gold of
your dance. fire and water, passion and cooling down, it is
niice to combine opposites.

the nicest thing of being a dancer or let's say being aliive,
is always to break your own patterns, and discover
something new. something you did not knwo before, but
of course it is in our body, but not always in our mind. our
mind is not so flexible, so we have to let it dance too.

to dance is for me to go on, to leave the old skin behind.
