When I first studied five rhythms dance, which is a movement meditation practice, I was tasked as part of the training to run open classes and to invite people along and encourage people.

And by that, I mean, there was some sort of emotional, psychological energy around it that was kind of more to me.
There was some discomfort for them around the fact that they felt they couldn't dance.

And I started jotting down what people were saying and I started asking questions and saying, well, why? What do you mean? You can't dance.
