Dance across traditions

Dance carries meaning differently across cultures—as prayer, celebration, courtship, narrative, or pure motion—and learning those differences shows how bodies encode wisdom and values specific to their time and place. The physical knowledge stored in a tradition of movement is as real as any text, and often more revealing.
