Happy International Dance Day everyone! Thank you Sarah Beaumont for recording us on Saturday at our workshop.

In 1982 the Dance Committee of ITI founded International Dance Day to be celebrated every year on the 29th April, the birthday of Jean-Georges Noverre (1727-1810), creator of modern ballet. The intention of the International Dance Day Message is to celebrate dance, revel in the universality of this art form, cross all political, cultural and ethnic barriers, and bring people together with a common language - dance.

This years message comes from Choreographer Crystal Pite:
"We are dancers, all of us. Life moves us; life dances us... We sculpt space... We write with our bodies in a wordless language that is deeply understood. We grace the space within and around us when we dance. Like life, a dance creates and destroys itself in every moment. Like love, it is beyond reason. I like to think of the body as a location; a place where being is held and shaped. When we dance, we are profoundly engaged in being there."
