Purpose, Potential, Possibility - The Path of the Sacred Athlete!

“Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as you mind lets you. What you believe, you can achieve.” Mary Kay Ash

Our BIG focus as we stepped into 2012 has been becoming a Sacred Athlete.  The path to becoming and being a Sacred Athlete is a choice; it is a mindset.  It is a clear path of living into our greatness and opening to our limitless potential and endless possibilities available to us when we choose pleasure and love as our path.  Have you ever looked up the definition of Athlete?  It is defined by Webster as a "person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina".  The definition applies to the game of Life, and requires the same skills.  The game of Life becomes Sacred and we become Sacred Athletes when we bring awareness to all we do; where every move is meaningful, fulfilling and rewarding to the honoring of our body, mind, emotions and spirit. 

A Sacred Athlete is a teacher and healer to all people.   We are all teachers.  We teach others with our actions, our thoughts and words.  We teach others through our choices.  Choosing to keep your body healthy through movement and dance shows others how you have chosen to love your body. 

Whether you are starting this journey, continuing your journey, or have stepped off the path and are now ready to step back in, honor your process and then open your heart to your potential...it limitless.  Open to all the possibilities life has for you...it is endless.  Your body's potential is limitless...200/700 (bones and muscles) unique ways to move and heal.  The possibilities of your body are endless...9 movement forms to connect to; 3 planes of movement and intensity levels to explore; Move/Explore/Create your FreeDance...ENDLESS ways to create. 
In class and in life..Purpose, Potential, Possibility.  The journey is worth it!!! 

This week I will be combing 2 Nia routines:  Beyond and Birth.  Both routines are masterful creations designed for us to discover the potential and possibilities...to condition us for the game of Life.  And they both pack in so much fun!!!  Dance with me!


"Life is discovering
The love that we create
Life is a mystery
We need to embrace

In every way
You need to let go
You'll see all your dreams will follow
In every way
You need to let go...Rise by Samantha
