So often, we feel not ready,
and then find ourselves meeting the moment anyway.
Surprising ourselves with our capacity,
our community,
our love.
In the night we sang to storms
Before the peace that breaks at dawn
How did we doubt the evening sun
We didn’t know we were ready.
With the answers at our feet
Will we break the grounds beneath
What if the dreams were ours to keep
What if the silence said it
~ Ólafur Arnalds
Guest DJ
DJ Bobcat
Bob crafts journeys that invite dancers to deeply connect: with themselves, others, nature, and the music. He layers genres and world rhythms into an emotionally engaging set. At Warren Wilson College — where he is professor of psychology and expressive arts therapy — Bob facilitates ecstatic dance as a part of the community wellness program, bringing a grounded, experienced presence to the floor. Favorite place to dance: outside at the WWC Pavilion.
