I listen inward. I move.
The body remembers what words forget.

The soul speaks.
The body answers.
No audience.
No proof.
Only truth in motion.

I dance to Express, Not to impress.

I speak through movement.

My strength, my struggle, my talent – everything flows through dance, not through words.

The body arrives. The Guru shapes.

Hands learn. Feet root.

Rhythm breathes. Expression awakens.

I bow to the stage.
I bow first to the Guru.

Guru Brahma. Guru Vishnu.

I listen. The body answers.

Movement remembers.
The Guru guides.

What is received, is offered.

In breath, return.
