Dancing as you age Learning How To Be Old
-
- Salute e benessere
Today I’m learning how to be old from Jan Bolwell, a 74-year-old dancer and actor. For 25 years she has directed the Crows Feet Dance Collective, an amateur group of women who are dancing as we age. I asked Jan lots of nosy questions. You'll find out:
her grounding in two opposite types of dance
how to direct untrained older dancers
dancing as you age with two hip replacements and a double mastectomy
how audiences respond to older dancers on stage
and the extraordinary story of how Crows Feet began.
Finally, I learned something very special about self-consciousness while talking to Jan. At the end of the interview, it’s a great tip for when you start to notice yourself getting older. And it’s got nothing to do with dancing.
