The Dancing Place: Stories About Embodying Life

By Jennie Wakefield

The dance of life. The dance of opposites. Dance is a symbol for the flow of energy, the tension of opposites, or graceful blending. Yet in practice when the word is mentioned, many people run for cover. In our world, dance is often the province of highly trained specialists, the young and sleek bodied. For the rest, dancing may be a ticket to embarrassment. In The Dancing Place: Stories About Embodying Life, Jennie Wakefield expands the box we place dance in, exploring the value of embodied aesthetic experience in knowing ourselves individually and collectively.
