There is not an education system on the planet that teaches dance every day to children the way we teach them mathematics. I think math is very important, but so is dance. Children dance all the time if they&#8217;re allowed to, we all do.\u2026 Creativity now is as important in education as literacy, and we should treat it with the same status\u2026 By the time they get to be adults most kids have lost that capacity, or rather get educated out of it. We stigmatize mistakes, and we&#8217;re now running national education systems where mistakes are the worst thing you can do, and the result is that we are educating people out of their creative capacities\u2026 \u201d<\/em><br \/>\nAbbreviated from Sir Ken Robinson&#8217;s TED lecture, 2006, www.ted.com.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><i>Le Vo (y) age<\/i><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Choreography \/ dancer: Marylise Tanvet<br \/>\nMusic: Trentem\u00f8ller Moan, Miss You Opto 11.45 p.m.<br \/>\nMy first Solo \/ Impro project, Work-in-progress.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><em>\u201cLe Vo (y) age is an interpretation of many emotional pathways.
