The dance is a type of meditation, for the simple fact of being concentrated and repeating rhythmic movements, which agree with the compas of the music in a unison way you enter in a trance. It becomes a type of meditation. The point of meditation is reached when the dance is controlled in a natural way.
This requires perseverance, of course discipline and above all enjoyment.
For me, being a dancer is anyone who enjoys music or any special moment. So, we humans are spiritual creatures and therefore we generate energy, when we dance we vibrate with the purest energy we have, that is why it is important to dance with all the love, happiness and the best you have, regardless of being alone or accompanied during our performance we are dancing for ourselves, then there must be that feeling of joy and gratitude towards the universe, because that will be what we emanate, either talking energetically or visually.
But leaving this aside, it is obvious that for the simple fact of being able to dance one does not need to know about all this, because everyone dances in their own way, whether it is a party, some musical event, or listen to music or singing in the shower. It is about enjoying, and unconsciously one when dancing is transformed into the same music.
A very important point, which I almost forgot to mention, is that the dance is healing, a product of the meditation that I commented, which means that not always the reason to dance will be that one is happy, but sometimes one will dance to vent something. Dance allows one to express one's feelings in a certain way. This benefits in part to the personal expression, without forgetting the verbal expression, but what if I am really sure, is that dancing helps you relax. The same happens with a professional dancer, because as human beings we still have difficult days, only here there is a small difference, that as a professional dancer all this should be perfectly invisible during the stage, unless this is part of the performance.
Being a professional dancer makes everything more clear, but also everything becomes demanding and a certain pressure grows in the life of the dancer. Everything that the dancer thinks when forming a choreography, is to give all the best of himself for his I publish and that the public enjoys what they are seeing.
To reach a total harmony with your staging it is important to take into account the space; props, costumes; and especially the music and the public; and of course smile as if nothing in life were happening,
In addition to having to endure verbal and visual critics. Especially in these cases is when you have to concentrate and enter into total meditation so that everything flows in such a way that everything is in tune and harmony.
This does not mean that all this is a torture for the dancer when performing, everything becomes one of the most exciting and great moments that can happen, it is like being able to reach the success of any profession.
All this is achieved through perseverance and discipline, and to get there, on the way one experiences difficult moments which are overcome, fight for it if it is what you really want, no matter what anyone thinks.
It's a magical moment, dancing is free.
