Dance healing is available to everyone!
Without even stepping into a dance class, you have access to one of the most powerful healing modalities and can benefit from the profound joy, strength, grace, and love that dance offers you!
We all have a skeleton in our closet, something that we have done or that has happened to us that has made our lives difficult, has caused us pain, and has left physical, mental, and emotional scars. Imagine the possibilities when you learn to dance with your skeletons and ultimately heal them in such a way that you will never put them back in the closet again! Dancing with Your Skeletons is a three-part book offering you three separate ways to experience dance healing. The book as a whole can also be an amazing tool to gently and easily facilitate dance healing in your own life.
Every dance begins with one step. Reading this book is your first step in a new, beautiful, and exciting dance.

CHAPTER 1
Senta's Story
Dancing has always been an important part of my life, dancing, watching dancing, or desperately wanting to dance. When I look back at my nearly four decades of life, it is very clear that the times when I could and did dance were the happiest and most successful, and the times that I didn't dance were heavy, broken and very disconnected from my soul and life journey.
I grew up on a farm ten minutes outside a village, called Wartburg, in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Wartburg was founded by German missionaries in the 1800's and is still very German in language and tradition today. My childhood was filled with happy memories of farm life; working with my dad on the farm taught me discipline, to be a hard worker like him, and of course to be an early riser. My mum, an English-speaking teacher from Durban, married my father, a German farmer. She stopped teaching home economics to be a farmer's wife, doing the farm books and taking care of their three children, of which I am the oldest.
Living in a small village meant that we missed out on many of the opportunities that city children had in terms of dance, sports and other activities that we could learn. But my mum made sure that we took every opportunity that we could. She immersed herself in the community and encouraged us to do the same, and if we wanted to do something not available in Wartburg, she would drive us to Pietermaritzburg, or take us to visit our gran in Durban, so that we could still experience as much as possible.
Although we had slim pickings of extra activities in Wartburg, we did have one gold mine, my utopia, my magical, special place: ballet classes with Mrs Palmer. I still get a mixture of excited butterflies and an absolute sense of calm and peace as I remember Mrs Palmer's ballet class. Mrs Palmer was an ethereal being, who was gentle, soft and graceful in all her movements. I aspired to walk and have a posture like hers.
Although my childhood home life was very happy, my school life was not so enjoyable. I was shy and struggled with a sense of not knowing where I belonged. There were two very distinct groups at the school: the English-speaking kids and the German-speaking kids. Although we spoke more English as a family, I did speak both, and with one side of my parentage giving me a foot in each group, I felt blessed. I thought I could enjoy friendships on both sides, but it sadly didn't work out like that. Children can be cruel and I quick
