In Cuba where I come from, dance is supposed to give common joy and bring people together – it’s a moment of pure happiness. It is a way of communication and interaction between woman and a man, it shows cultural behavior and social beliefs. I find dance wherever I look, because life is dance to me. It is breath, glance, an out of words conversation. It is movement, it is being, both sound and silence, the deepest meditation, a prayer. An encounter with the Truth… the truth about myself, about life, a key to understand oneself and others.

I see so many people with no connection to who they are.
I see them talking, teaching, learning, training, moving, dancing, singing, shouting...
but no connection, to the Truth, to themselves, to the Spirit, to the Soul, to their inner child, to their true talents, to God.
It is not one thing that makes us be ourselves.
We are connected in a holistic way to what we truly are. When you persue in this, you cannot pretend, you cannot do it part time, because it means all your life, your work, your expression, your relations, it is everything. I believe we deserve to be real, to seek and find our pureness and be true.
Everything we need to know was said before, we just forgot. Every wise man in our history and till today, they just remind us about the Truth. It has been all said. We just need to remember.
Then we can connect to who we are and be what we want to be.

Where do you look to find support in your life? Where do you seek acceptance and love? Is it the outer world, your work, family, the other person, or maybe is it yourself? Life is in constant motion, it is permanently changing. Change is its most stable quality. Sometimes we feel anxiety and insecurity, because we don’t know what will happen… whether we will be loved, accepted just as we are. Your roots are in you, just like anything else you are looking for. When you understand this and start working with it – you will evolve inside. With time, you will start to notice that there is nothing in the outer world that could shake you… because you have found and developed Self-Love.
