In my journey as a Dance Movement
Synergizer, I have been observing with a keen interest the diversity in the range
of each learner’s movements and have been a joyful witness to their evolving
sense of creativity as they deepen their learning process.
Have often felt that a
validation of the efforts that they put is what seems to weigh more heavily on
the mind of any new learner. this is a
major hindrance to creative ability , as in the process of finding that validation
, most are not ready to open up to any such possibilities which may look bleak
but are after all a start of another way of looking at things. For example many prefer to tread onto a
chosen path without any attempt at trying anything new as the pressure to conform
to standards plugs out any joy of doing what you do. The trick to positive creativity
is to realise the joy in what you create; the process needs to be enjoyed just
as much. If you were to keep judging about
the quality of your dancing all the time would you be enjoying while you dance ?To me dancing is after all having more to do with the way
you feel and sense . It’s your personal rhythmic
interpretation of thoughts and music at the given moment. The steps and technique are learnt as a guide
to creating poetry in motions not the other way round. Any art should be a start
to a never ending beginning of newer interpretations, possibilities, and not to
be looked as just a means to an end.
