“Dancing is the loftiest, the most moving, and the most beautiful of the arts; because it is not mere translation or abstraction from life, it is life itself.” – Havellok Elis.
Sancta Maria was mesmerized with the presence of the illustrious ballet and contemporary dancer Prof. Alan Sener, who is also the chairs the dance department of the University of IOWA, New York.
Prof. Alan Sener, along with our dance teacher, Aparna performed….. rather …….improvised on the spot dance movements; the toes turned and twisted, the hands wandered, the body floated…. It was perfect!
The children were in awe!!!!
Prof. Alan Sener also spoke about ‘nothing being impossible’ and urged the students to follow their dreams. When it was students’ turn to ask questions, they were eager to know how long had Prof. Alan Sener been dancing! Aditya (Grade 2) curiously put forward the question “Did you study first and then danced or vice versa?” Jordan, Grade 6 got so inspired that he wanted to demonstrate his dancing skills as well!
Not to forget the patience and grace that Prof. Alan Sener displayed throughout. A True Class Apart!!
Thank You Prof. Alan Sener
