DISCOVERING THE HEALING POWERS OF DANCE

VASHI : On the 18th of July, Dance2Konnect, a Navi Mumbai based organization consisting of a  group of young dancing enthusiasts, held a free dance workshop at the Hope and Care Centre at Vashi. The group taught funky and easy dance steps to people of all age groups and spread positive energy.

Senior citizens, kids, and adults were exposed to the freedom of dance as Dance2Konnect led them through their fun dance routines. The audience thoroughly enjoyed the workshop as they followed the dancers step by step. The 2 hour workshop seemed to bring a new atmosphere among the people. The group aims to use the power of dancing to heal. The audience was replenished by the energy brought to them by these young dancers. One of the senior citizens who attended the workshop said, ‘I love dancing, but I was shy, and feared judgement from society. Dance2Konnect encouraged the child within me to let it loose and groove to the beat.’ Dance2Konnect spread energy and hope among all who were present and made it an unforgettable event.

Dance2Konnect introduced the emotional value of dance to the audience alongwith introducing its unique and energetic approach. ‘I don’t know how they do this, but this group brought people 
of all age groups together and connected us without us even realizing it’, exclaimed another member from the audience.
