“Now I am going to reveal to you something which is very pure, a totally white thought. It is always in my heart; it blooms at each of my steps... The Dance is love, it is only love, it alone, and that is enough... I, then, it is amorously that I dance: to poems, to music but now I would like to no longer dance to anything but the rhythm of my soul.” 
― Isadora Duncan

“If I could tell you what it meant, there would be no point in dancing it” 
― Isadora Duncan

“It has taken me years of struggle, hard work, and research to learn to make one simple gesture, and I know enough about the art of writing to realize that it would take as many years of concentrated effort to write one simple, beautiful sentence.” 
― Isadora Duncan

Isadora Duncan dance works from the solar plexus radiating outward, using the whole body in an integrated technique of natural, flowing, graceful and upward movements. The focus is on uplifting, inspiring, creative and beautiful dances. Duncan strives to preserve the natural innocence of the child and the health and natural beauty and divinity of every human being.
