“Mitakuye Oyasin — we are all related. All of us, no matter who you are (person), or what you are (grass, trees, rocks), are the same. Some say related — I like to say enmeshed because it really is. That is why when you speak with a Lakota person, you will get the story you are asking about, but then about fifty other stories, because the one story you are asking about is enmeshed with all the others.“ (Mary Black Bonnet)

It is a deep human need to experience group cohesion, community. And of course, we are also complicated, we can cause difficulties for each other, disturb others, hurt them, and cause discomfort. Being in a community is a challenge, requires attention, is dangerous, and is also the greatest joy all at once.
Dance creates a space where we can practice nourishing togetherness without words. We can develop and grow those parts of ourselves that make us more capable of connecting, and thus we can be even more alive when immersed in community.
