Dance classes

This week in CCNT,

I'm teaching
the contemporary dance class / advanced level...

Enjoy the space!

Empathy for life!

Well, on my 3d seminar on Art, Movement & Therapy our teacher Martine de Nardi practiced EMPATHY with us in...real time! An everyday expression for it : being "open" towards a person...
Alternative healing today is based a lot on empathy. People (:us...) need to experience "connectedness", to have our voice heard, to share silent complicity...Touch the body with no judgement and communicate our intention to heal in a non-volontary manner...KEEP PERCEIVING!

To Nuke or not to Nuke?

If you have a problem with nuclear wars
play this game : anti-nuke

ecstasy...

Ecstasy is our very nature; not to be ecstatic is simply unnecessary.
To be ecstatic is natural, spontaneous. It needs no effort to be ecstatic,it needs great effort to be miserable. That's why you look so tired,because misery is really hard work; to maintain it is really difficult,because you are doing something against nature.
OSHO

And how can people trust food created by such extremely immoral corporations???They produced agent orange and allowed it to be used!I'll tell you how : people don't know...And governements are for sure making money because of that...Otherwise how can you explain european people refusing OGM's and still EU importing them for animal feeding?! If I were religious I would consider MONSANTO as the devil's representative...and ourselves as the divine...idiots!BOYCOT THEM!!!

do you believe in milk???

I was upset once more with this milk business!
"Milk is good for you!" THEY say...
They even confused my poor mother saying that it would help avoid osteoporosis!
Milk industry in the western civilisation seems to be
just one more capitalist money making trick...
See here : OO

introspect the outer world...

It is not necessary
that you leave the house.
Remain at your table and listen.
Do not even listen, only wait.
Do not even wait,
be wholly still and alone.
The world will present itself to you for its unmasking, it can do no other, in ecstasy it will writhe at your feet.
Franz Kafka

Mac What???

You love Mac Donalds????
A small town in Italy managed to close down one of their restaurants!
Good taste won!
I am very upset about MCDonalds because they practice PROPAGANDA! They manage to persuade school directors to bring entire classrooms for "various activities" in their restaurants!

Out beyond ideas
of right doing
and wrong doing
there is a field.
I'll meet you there...

2006 : let’s take care of « love »…
face to the flux of information that seeks to form our opinions
face to the incapacity to manage this flux
and come to coherent conclusions

I wish us all

the « good » intuition
the « good » perception
the « good » reflection
in order to sculpt a new « human » mobility
face to the world events
