“A tree's beauty lies in its branches, but its strength lies in its roots.”
― Matshona Dhliwayo
There is a refran in Puerto Rico that says, “El que no aprende es porque no quiere” which roughly translates to ‘The only person that doesn’t learn is the one who doesn’t want to learn’
For us, loving something or someone is to understand it or them to the furthest depth possible. To intrinsically be motivated to acquire knowledge of history, relationships and impact.
Grateful for this eloquently expressed analysis of the state of ‘On 2’ dancing today by Frankie Martinez. There is a reason why sometimes you share a dance with a partner that feels almost magickal. It is a unique chemistry and ‘clicking’ that happens.
There is a reason, a methodology, an artistry to experience that - it cannot be choreographed, it must be conjured. This is part I. We will post part II shortly. For those who love Mambo, this is for you
