"Dance With Angels" Series part I




” Dance With Angels ” Series

part I

“Think of the magic of that foot,

comparatively small, upon which your whole weight rests.

It’s a miracle,

and the dance is a celebration of that miracle.“

Martha Graham

They are women,

they have the talent of the absolute movement of the body.

They are not simply dancers,

they are the leading dancers of the planet.

They build the history of Dance,

the history of Movement.

They participate in the dreamy architecture of the body.

They write the history of body, with their bodies.

Dreamy, airy, ethereal.

They are certain times romantic and other times dynamic.

They have the magic force to wake up our senses:

Anger, distress, sorrow, joy, optimism,

expectation, harmony, rage, love…

One would say that they are not earthy existences,

but come from the sky,

from where life originated.

And death.

The history of movement

and at extension of the human body,

is a history of life,

or more accurately,

is the History of Life,

but also the chronicle

of dream, of the impossible, of the ideal.

Ladies and gentlemen,
but above all,
our beloved friends of “La Ivolution”,
we present to you the first part
of  the Angels of modern and classic dance.

Enjoy, dream and fly in sky with them:
they are the Angels of Dance
and will remain together you
until the end of the journey.
