Re: For the younger folk
No, but once, at the last school I taught at, a visiting group came and showed a video on the importance of dance and song, well rhythm actually, in various tribal cultures. Their premise was that most of us in the western world don't have that communal aspect built into our lives. Sure you can sing and dance to the radio and even be creative, making up songs all the time, but these people were singing and dancing together while they worked, journey and played. The subsequent performance of singing and dancing had the kids moving and joining in. It was very cool.
Other books, such as Hancock's "Supernatural", reference dancing for trancing. The idea appeals to me a lot.
