DANCE AND ENVIRONMENT: A UNIQUE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CULTURE AND NATURE
Dance is undoubtedly a great health exercise which needs a healthy body. Dancers have a unique perspective on the relationship between the body and the natural world, and their training and practice can lead to a deeper understanding of the environment. So a proper food system is required for the dancers. Staying in a polluted area, inhaling a high amount of CO² or such unhealthy gases will cause a risk for a dancer. So definitely we need a strong eco system and an interest in green technology. But what does the dance or dancer do for this? First of all, a dancer can spread awareness in society through their dance productions. Dance can be a powerful tool for raising environmental awareness by allowing audiences to experience the emotional and physical impact of environmental issues in a kinaesthetic way, fostering deeper understanding and connection to the problem.
