Flow - Keep your Heart Open

[Claire Smith]

Hi everyone,

The summer solstice is approaching, which means the most sunlight in all the year.  Massive tragedy has occurred in Orlando.  And yet today is a stunningly beautiful day.  The politics game is playing out in crazier ways than ever.  And yet, we're breathing deep, feeling alive.  How do we respond in these times, how do we let ourselves feel as deeply as the situation demands, without getting overcome by confusion and emotion?  We have to keep the channels open.  We have to dance, cry, laugh, and love like never before, to honor humanity in all its passions and forms.

Tonight we keep our hearts open in movement, finding expression through props, play, practice, and ever-spinning circles.  It's a form of personal prayer, really, to keep our spirits youthful and effervescent.

We'll be dancing to an especially crunk playlist today, keeping the rhythm going, our hearts open, and our movement liberated.  If you can, join us at Flow Mix!  And regardless, take a moment to feel the beat of your own heart and see how passionately you can dance to it :)
