Inspirations All Around

Gee, I love this life, where the flow of images greets me from such wild sources. "DV8's work is about taking risks. It is about personal politics, about breaking down barriers between dance and theatre, and above all, about communicating ideas and feelings clearly and unpretentiously. The company tells stories through extended naturalistic movement in a radical yet accessible way, shunning linear narrative and rejecting the traditional conventions of ballet and modern dance. It also challenges notion of dance by demonstrating how expansive and individual the medium can be." This is the trailer for their 35 minute film "The Cost of Living."

Has anybody out there seen this movie: The Cost of Living?

 Here's the trailer:

Susie, What a facinating movie clip I watched it a few times! I recently discovered the magic of movement while taking a Sha Sha Higbey class- I transformed myself into a tree that was learning to fly from a bird. L.

The magic of movement. Well said. Ever since I earned my stripes in a NIA white belt course, I've been a total convert inside and out to the power of movement as a tool for both mental and physical health. Now that I live inconveniently out of the city -- as far as a regular NIA class goes -- we just try to fire up the XM jukebox each morning for a fast half hour of free dance. It's the next best thing, or maybe even better!
