five minutes of dance

Dance, when you’re broken open.
Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off.
Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood.
Dance, when you’re perfectly free.?
- Rumi
Five Minutes of Dance
by Reed Colver
Those who have taken class with me on any sort of a regular basis (as in more than once) are well aware that I seem to be completely unable to make it to class on time. Usually I arrive just about 10 – 15 minutes late. If I’m doing really well, I’m only five minutes late.
