Why ? Healing through dance.

I got inspired by the late Chandralekha, a legendary dancer from south India who discards the devotional elements of dance for dynamic, body-oriented movements.

Here's my story about how dance became the ultimate answer to my soul-searching.

“After years of dancing, I was always missing and searching 'the' element in dance. After my arangetram (dance debut/initiation), I had a spiritual and bodily erotic ecstasy. It opened my senses and the purpose of dance combined with sexuality. The world was speaking terrible bad about the devadasis as prostitutes or other nasty names; luckily, there were dancers and some people who thought otherwise of the ridiculous accusations. I was secretly hiding and avoiding my feelings of erotism, and the gap was evident in my life and dance at some point. This retreat continued because while searching for answers, I would look everywhere but inside my heart. I finally got my answer when I went to a performance in Amsterdam, and it was Sharira, a dance performance by dancers of Chandralekha. It started with a majestic sound of Dhrupad singing, the oldest surviving classical Hindustani or North Indian vocal music style. Followed by the most erotic music instrument, the Phakawaj, its sound, especially the base, touched my soul with every beat. It felt like heavy breathing while you have intimate and passionate sex. I was numb, enchanted, and astonished. Slowly tears came and happiness, in myself I screamed 'Finally," and I knew this was and is my purpose of dance.

It took years to develop, and I had to wait for the moment that I was ready to express. Because sexuality is a complex subject to talk about or to speak about, without giving others the feeling that they get abused or harassed, it has been a fight within myself. I suffered from depression by not expressing who I was as a living being in dance and life. I have always believed that my identity, persona, and sexualities were gifts or blessings for me, but some people found them a burden. How can I let those people think that it's necessary to let this beautiful gift in your life?

This process also helped me accept my belly scar after a botched-up operation. From being the owner of a beautifully flat six-pack stomach, I was given the outcome of a malformed and reconstructed abdomen at the end of surgery. But today, I'm now proud of who I am, including and embracing my scars and malformed stomach.

When you dive into the tantric energy, everything becomes whole and exemplifies passion, representing the universal embodiment and eternal love. And when you embrace a raw emotion, you liberate your soul in many ways. For me, these emotions and experiences acted as an outlet, as the tantric flow of creation came as himself; and presented itself as the ShivaShakti (male and female energy merged) from the most potent cosmos. For me, it is the ultimate symbol where the perception of beauty is related to an awareness of the body, both in its spiritual and sexual manifestations. And when I dance, my choreography is expressed through the male and female energies, making it eternal and complete.

‘Don't be afraid of your insecurity

Familiarize yourself with your insecurity

This form of art and expression results in friendship with your certainty’

This dance, of course, is through movements, breathing, connecting. And you don't need to be a professional dancer to liberate your authentic spirit; “dance from your heart and the peace shall follow.”
