Dance and movement as creativity

Dance is the art in which the instrument and the artist are indistinguishable — the body is not a medium through which dance passes but the dance itself, which means that every limitation and every capacity of the dancer's body is also part of the work. To choreograph or to improvise is to think in movement, which is a different kind of thinking than language, more immediate, more honest about certain things. What the body knows, it knows completely and without equivocation.
