Picture
Carla De Sola has danced in a sacred context for more than fifty years. Over time she noticed a common bond among dancers, in part based on their developed bodily, or kinesthetic sense, a heightened ability to read and understand the rhythms and dynamics of movement experiences. This awareness was not solely an artistic appreciation of dance but of life experiences seemingly ordinary but consciousness changing.  She was led to ask other dancers if they had a story to tell of special times of awareness of Divine presence, that is, their own personal kairos moments—grace-filled happenings beyond ordinary chronos, or clock time, becoming imprinted on their soul. Thus, this collection came into being.
​
The dancer’s stories range broadly and in diverse settings. The essays are categorized into sections: Dancing for the Common Good; Dance Moves the Soul; The Joy of Dance; Journey to Awareness; and Called to Dance. Editor Diana Wear wrote theological reflections in order to frame each section. David W. McCauley, Jr. drew upon his artistry, skills and imagination so that each category was enriched through a visual dimension. The designs, paintings and photos throughout the book carry a deep purpose—to give readers’ eyes a place to rest and space for the mind to contemplate—contributing their own meditative moments.
