Moving Right Along

Okay. Went through some frustration and reorganization. Jeremy opted not to come today, Tuesday June 2nd - too busy. Worked out well. Gave me a chance to tell students they will be filmed next Tuesday, which is the last class for this term. Marc agreed to borrow a camera and take pics. Today I played Indian Sunrise, mixed it in with TransVision and ended with Indian Sunrise. I don't have specific choreography for Indian Sunrise - just general moves. I'm exploring. This is the way I'll do it until the music is laid out - unless it happens differently. I watched a little of an African tape and another tape called Bollywood. Getting ideas. And of course I have so many Nia routines. Today's focus was the knees.

I sent Douglas an email telling him I really really really want to communicate with him. He sent a chat while I was out. I hope we'll talk soon. Maybe later tonight.

Basically, I'm learning patience. Learning how to allow this project to birth and grow. The form it will take depends on a number of things. I'm backing off of being frantic about raising money for the project. I have some information and some possibilities.

In the meantime, Steve has been reignited about his Sufi connection and his ideas about community. I am also interested.

Taking it moment by moment, day by day.

After class, many of us went to Dot's house for a beautiful potluck. Several of the women got a chance to share themselves. I spoke of my many names via living conditions and marriages. I also spoke a bit about my background in theater, dance and yoga. We are certainly a varied and truly interesting group.
