Ep 191. Accepting Your Own Pace - Student Voices w/ Lina Marie
This is a special weekend series ‘Student Voices’ where I share my conversations with the members of the Iana Dance Club about life, dance and training. Some of participants are belly dance beginners, some are professionals, but all of us have one thing in common: we all remain being students of dance. :)
Enjoy this inspiring conversation with Lina Marie where she shares her belly dance transformations with us:
‘’I feel that I’m growing, and it’s wonderful to be 59 and still experience the growth in your body."
"I started doing belly dance to help with my cognition, to feel more feminine on my body. I’m learning to be not just to be a worker, but to have individuality and to express myself."
"My training is changing with my body. Some days I just sit and watch videos, or listen to the music and mark moves in my head."
"I’m happy if dance just belongs to me [without showing it to anyone else]. But I like sharing and bringing joy to people too."
"What keeps people away from even trying to attend the class is that fear of feeling lost."_ Lina Marie
