Dancing in the Streets

Sadly, I think this photo is actually of an Australian actor at a charity fundraiser in Sydney, and NOT the real Gandhi (at least according to this site). Real Gandhi or actor’s portrayal, it still made me smile and reminded me that I love to dance.

When I dance, it’s not modern, jazz or club dancing. It’s just – dancing. It’s me in my living room looking like Elaine and scaring the dog. But I love it.

Need a little more inspiration? Here’s an image that has been making the rounds lately. I saw it first on Cup of Jo along with the quote: “No one looks stupid when they’re having fun.” – Amy Poehler

What do you think – Do you only dance where no one can see? Or do you take to the streets?

Get on Up

After my yoga podcast ended this morning, I sat and swayed, smiling. And then Deeper Shade of Soul came on and I danced.

I’ve walked, I’ve strolled. I’ve ellipticalled. I’ve kept my heart rate elevated. I’ve done asana and I’ve sat in stillness. But I have not DANCED in a long time.

It felt good.

It might be more fun
If you just started to dance
Life’s got a good beat
