The 6th Chakra—the 3rd Eye (center of the Brow Chakra) is governed by the color, Indigo. The deep bluish purple sheds light on the characteristics of the 6th Chakra i.e., intuition, self-awareness, dreams, clarity and visualization. Being personally attuned to the sensitivities of the 6th chakra has been a blessing and a challenge for me.  The stories and awakenings have been many.

Dancing and miming to Lou Rawls’ “In the Evening, When the Sun Goes Down,” helps me to tap into my intuitive center, as a guide for the gesticulations and interpretation of Mr. Rawls’ lyrics. The Foot Swipes, Fall -Off-the Logs, Fishtails, Susie Q’s and Jazz Turns mimic the smoothness of his velvety Baritone stylings.

The transitioning of Solo Jazz/Blues Dancing into Hoop Dance Stylings requires graded control and subtle lateral movements. It allows me to slowly infuse previous dance steps into a revolving, on-waist Hooping pattern, including on/off-beat and syncopated rhythms.  All-in-all, my mood is buoyed by the Jazz/Blues-inspired movements.  The polyrhythms of Afrobeat, Swing, Lindy, Balboa and Tap are supportive of my improvisations. It is the Autonomic Nervous (physiological regulation) and Reticular Activating Systems (awake, alert & engaged) functioning at their best, with their cohorts, Tactile-Vestibular and Proprioceptive Systems (sense of touch, movement and joint awareness).

Endorphins are at work!
