"The true dance is an expression of serenity; it is controlled by the profound rhythm of inner emotion. Emotion does not reach the moment of frenzy out of a spurt of action; it broods first, it sleeps like the life in the seed, and it unfolds with a gentle slowness. The Greeks understood the continuing beauty of a movement that mounted, that spread, that ended with a promise of rebirth.
The Dance - it is the rhythm of all that dies in order to live again; it is the eternal rising of the sun."
Isadora Duncan, The Art of The Dance, p. 99

    I like you approach. Dance seems to connect us with the dance of life in an intimate way. It presents us with the creativity of life and harmonizes our problems with life. Dance seems to reveal to us the interplay of opposites rather than the fear of those opposites. I can imagine that dance helps us to get past our tendency for war.
