Dances, harmonizing and expression . First person view. |
Today i have the honor, after years of adore India as an unreachable star,to be myself, Elizabeth Luz Rodriguez, who write about experiences related to indian culture.
I introduce myself because this is my first article thanks to Lakmé Indira, who give me this amazing chance to be correspondent, reason why i will be thankfull with her forever...
My first great experience was in the dance, expression and harmonizing workshop, given by Lakme Indira in the space New Time, in Rivadavia 2530, PB 2.From the begining i could breath a peacefull and joyful air that purify our minds and prepare them to recive the best of the workshop. All of this with the indian music that frame the best way to spend a dreamy saturday.
Expression in the indian dances is too much important, and the profesors in Argentina who give it the importance that expression deserve, are not enough, thats why Lakme explained us with detail about this subject in the theory and in the practical area, with written information,printed and digital.
One way to harmonize the air and ourselves is through aromatherapy( healing through smell ) and chromotherapy ( healing through the colors ), both sciences are used in India since many centuries ago, being from the oldest sciences of humankind. Lakme teached us about aromatherapy and chromatherapy, which are the perfect complement for a great meditation.Also we learned that Malika, the name of the magazine,means jasmine in hindi language.
Meditation is the most usefull way to manage all the stress that we must deal with so many times....Lakme also gave us some good tips for meditation, for example a good mantra.
Indian dance also has been part of the workshop for joy of all of us; We could learn and even practise the basical steps, including the diference between clasical indian dances and bollywood style.Bollywood dance fill our souls even if we dont want it, because of the way how the music travell through our veins,yes,veins,because this magical rithm penetrate our body and travell through it as if it would be exactly inside of our blood...
The most wonderfull thing about indian dances is that they include all the parts of our body, every muscle, every part, every chakra is harmonize when we practise those steps,those moves, so full of life, that beside as its characterized by expression of our own emotions, it become a therapy that makes to emerge emotions and let us to achieve the physical, emotional, menthal and spiritual balance essential to keep up a good health condition and happiness.
As a perfect ending we could walk our first steps in the typical indian singing, in the theory and in the practical way, through the typical vocalization of India, following the typical musical scales completly diferent of ours.
As a plus, we had the instructions to make an ancient infusion which is an excelent refresh and clear our throat and bronchial tubes.
From the begining to the ending it was an unforgettable experience, the recived information is from an unmeasurable value, and anyway its the tip of the iceberg, because Lakme Indira is giving workshops and courses all the time where she open the doors for us to share with us all the knowledge with anyone who ask for it without scant.
I invite all of you to come to discover the indian Universe that Lakmé is willing to share...
