Inspiration
It is in human nature to create beauty. It is part of evolution and flows from the soul's drive. Beauty takes many forms and expressions. Each is unique and special. See what touches you - where do you find recognition? Often, beauty is linked to purity and authenticity. See the sparkle and spirit through the form and connect with the essence behind the form.
Explanation of the Movement
In this dance, I depict the feathers of the peacock. As I open my feathers, I inwardly evoke a feeling of appreciation and beauty. How would you open your feathers to express beauty? Experience how you are seen in your grace and authenticity. Seduce yourself with your dance and optionally use a scarf or a fan. A flower in your hair or a head jewel can be the accent that makes you shine. I stay connected to my inner beauty and radiate it into my surroundings.
Mayura
I expand my awareness of beauty and surround myself with a sense of appreciation.
