The purpose of art is to create an external reflection of the internal self. The use of dance and movement in any situation allows for the participant to engage in self-expression and self-reflection. Participating in the arts can collectively bring forth common beliefs and ideals to transform a community into interconnected movers. This connection creates a population who is willing to understand differences and grow into a more informed and open-minded community.

 

 

“We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche
