A New Year
As arbitrary as Jan 1 is in space and time, I’m am excited and enjoy the feeling of excitement about this coming year.
Last year I wrote a text to my buddies that read: “08 = radicalness”, and in many was that summed up the experience. It was a year of radical change. On Jan. 1, 08, I had never been to a festival. A few weeks later I was figuring out how to organize what, to me is still the best big festival I’ve been to yet.
Now, a year later, HTF2 is coming up and I am excited for that and the other big ticket things I’m visioning for in the coming months.
This year I wrote a text to my buddies:
“09 = fulfillment and abun-dance”

Here’s a video of the milonga I went to in Portland for new years. I believe this is around 2 am.
Tip of the day:
Notice what headspace you’re in when you fall or ‘make a mistake’. Typically your attention will be on non-dance related experiences (e.g. thinking about dance, how you look, interpreting the movements rather than flowing, imagining what other are thinking about you, or even getting lost in a body experience that distracts from general presence).
Fulfillment and abun-dance to you all!
