Why Should we hold a
Community Dance?
Suble things that can happen in your organisation by holding a dance:
- People discover that they can do something entertaining with nothing
but themselves.
- People get a flavor for what it might have been like to be Thomas
Jefferson or Abraham Lincoln at a ball, before there was TV, MTV,
Macarena, etc.
- Teenagers get to discover that someone in their middle age can dance
fast enough to wear them out!
- Children and Adults alike learn how to interact with each other
with gentleness and respect.
- People learn that they can smile and be nice to practically anyone
for 32 bars of music.
- People, especially children, learn the importance of cooperating
and following simple directions.
- People get a pretty good aerobic workout and actually enjoy it.
- People get a pretty good mental workout and actually enjoy it.
- There is an indescribable moment when everyone collectively
"gets it", and falls in time with music that is timeless.
This brings people closer in a very special way.
- People have to loosen up a notch with each other.
