Dance is the hidden language of the soul of the body.” Martha Graham.

The way the Chinese have combined classical ballet with acrobatics and gymnastics is utterly amazing to me. The discipline involved in this seems over-and-above the usual – and impressive – discipline and commitment required for the mastery of classical ballet. It takes my breath away. If I were in the audience when the ballerina goes en pointe on the ballet dancer’s shoulders and then his head, I would be unable to clap or cheer for fear of breaking their concentration. This performance is just stunning. Understandably it has had well over two million views on YouTube. If you haven’t seen it, take the time to watch it here. If you have seen it, watch it again. It will serve your spirit well . . .
