After a two-year absence from five rhythms dancing, I had the opportunity to do (part of) a dance course in Grenoble this weekend. Led by Paris-based
Amélie Schweiger on the theme of
danser la relation, it was potentially scary stuff. But I transitioned (rather than wallowed in) the emotions that always surface in this dance. It felt like progress and on another level it was good to feel - as always - liberation from the linguistic and other shackles that prevent me fully "being me" in other aspects of life. A perfect way to celebrate the solstice.
Today was a dance
à deux with Juan, up the Ferrand Valley. It's a favourite part of the Oisans, where we have had memorable adventures in the past. After the heat of the last two weeks summer has almost caught up with itself - though the sight of sheep rooting around on snow (why? - it wasn't
that hot!) was curious. It was a delicious day, warm with a nip in the air. As usual, Mrs lounged around while Mr documented the flora.
