Presence

Presence is my next dance theme.

I try to simplify and define what it is, in the context that I am using it.

Presence is 2 things:

• This moment, the here and now

• How I interact with the world around me, the inner and outer world, sending and receiving

Here in the now is spontaneity and availability to the moment, focused without moving into the past or future.

How I interact with the world is 2 parts:

• Receptivity to the world around me, noticing what is happening outside of me, awareness of the outer world

• Awareness of how I feel, my inner world of emotions and authenticity, preference and desire. Actively expressing them

These two worlds interact or flow - in the moment.

The strength of my connection to both these worlds, in the now, determines my presence.
