Martha Graham did her first solo performance 100 years ago, in 1926. The NY Times marked that anniversary with a terrific article, "Why the Radical Vision of Martha Graham Still Matters."
(see link to article in comments below)

Martha Graham famously said, "The body never lies."
What truths might your body be telling you?
And are you listening?
