PLAY from Nic Askew on Vimeo.

“Play is a state of being” – yes! Something to aspire to I think. A state of openness to explore, feel, test, fail, get better…I’m ready for some more “joyful responsibilities” this year! Thanks Katie, and to Samuel for passing this gem of an interview my way.

a very inspiring speech…How can I keep in play mode today?

I have a passion for human potential, I totally relate to Brother Mike’s words… Who will you mentor? What part do you have to play in the life and education of another? To my mentor Andrew Morrish, thank you!

Everyone, all ages welcome!!!
First up 17 June Parc Tournay-Solvay… see Bal Moderne for details.

Thanks to everyone who participated yesterday in the Bal Moderne in De Spil (Roeselaere). “Pink Conga” was “rainbow conga” this time around!

More Bal Moderne action this summer in the parks in Brussels – check it out!

“If your perception is much worse than your reality, what on earth are you doing trying to change the reality. That’s like trying to improve the food in a restaurant that stinks.” – Rory Sutherland

I love this, it can be applied to everything – performances, classes, life in general… How could you change your perception to improve your reality instead?

Please join me & Filip Bilsen for “Pink Ribbon Conga” (music: Gloria Estefan) choreographed by myself, Filip & Sophie Beyne, as well as “Cream” (music: Prince) by Mathieu Bajolet. Come on shake your bodies babies!!

SoloConversations meets Dizôrkestra next Fri 4th May in Le Chien Perdu!

Bienvenue à tous! Welkom idereen!

I’m loving Elbert Hubbard‘s humour & wisdom today…here are some of many greats:

“Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.”

“Art is not a thing; it is a way. ”

“Life is just one damned thing after another. ”

“Positive anything is better than negative nothing. ”

“We awaken in others the same attitude of mind we hold toward them.”

“Every man is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day; wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit. “
