TOPIC: Meaning of Dance as Emotional and Artistic Expression

Dance as Emotional Expression

- Dance is an expressive tool that can give a person a new emotional outlet to deal with feelings which at times are intense
or overwhelming. It is important and healing to have positive ways to deal with feelings and to move with energy out of
body, instead of squelching or repressing it. “Emovere” (dance is essentially emotion in motion). The word emotion is
derived from the latin word “emovere” meaning to move, move out or move through.
Dance as an Artistic Expression
Dance is an exposure of human body in its most naked form whether one is raising their hand or performing. Dance is a
natural form of self-expression: the body expresses itself naturally and so therefore does the spirit. We are all free willed
beings, no matter what our personal situation may be. Through dance, our body expresses how free we actually are, while
also highlighting the restrictions our minds impose on it.
