CreativeTherapy Catalyst 26 - Dance

CreativeTherapy Catalyst 26 - Dance

This week’s CreativeTherapy catalyst is “What is one talent/ability you wish you had?” Though I believe that most talents/abilities can be gained through nurturing them and practicing them, there are some, like singing and dancing, that probably require some sort of real gift. So, here is my response to the catalyst:

If there was one talent or ability I wish I could have it would be the ability to dance. I always wanted to be able to do ballet or jazz dancing. The music moves me and I want to move with it. I always wanted to take classes and to learn to leap, like the pictured mannequin does. But that was not to be. I had a vision of myself as graceful and balanced. It’s a nice dream!

Technique highlight: Pen and ink with colored pencils.

    I wish I could sing. Even just a little. When I’d sing as a child, my mother would always say “Dance, don’t sing.” It’s only been recently that I’d even sing happy birthday out loud cuz I thought I was so off-key!

    I wish I could sing. I love to hear people sing, but I was the one who was told to “just mouth the words during school concerts (this was before anyone ever thought of lip-synching as a talent) and my children never like me singing lullabies to them; and when I try to sing a melody to have someone identify a tune, they NEVER recognize what I’m going for.
