Alethea talks about the benefits of dance class with Jeannie Yandel on KUOW's Meet Me Here podcast.

 

Dance is community, joy, pleasure, connection, practice, ritual: and you can do it too.

"I think that anyone who's interested in dancing — professionally or not — is likely to gain similar riches from participating in movement.

 

Dance is a community space. It's a way I know other people. It's a way that I get to be with people in a meaningful relationship, in a way where we're sharing experience: taste, light, sound, texture, time.... Dance is a way for me to feel pleasure, it's a way for me to feel joy, and silliness."
