Is Dancing Built Into Our Bodies
You know I have often wondered if dancing was part of our being or souls. We all like to dance in one way or another. Since caveman times we have produced music and moved our bodies to that music. We as individuals and as a group have always come up with ways to “Dance to the Music”. Whether that dancing had a purpose such as to bring on the rain or to celebrate as in thanking whatever gods were worshiped at the time for a bountiful harvest. We have even come up with dances to inspire mating. That is the main reason I believe that dancing is built into our very bodies. Mother nature requires us to propagate or ensure that the human race continues so we must have the dancing gene built into us to further that end.
Granted some of us are better at dancing than others just as some of us are better at attracting a mate than others are. So, even if you think you cannot dance you just need to believe that the ability is hard-wired into your system. All you have to do to bring it out is to TRY. Learn new steps, practice them by yourself if you are not real good yet! With all the books and videos out there about dancing you are bound to find one that you can comprehend. As we said in an earlier post dancing is great exercise and can be fun if you don’t worry about what other people think and just do it. Remember if cavemen can do it you can too!
