The Dance Journey of Sasha Bashir
Before it became an art and an entertainment, the dance was a medium for communication; portraying one’s emotions, actions and desires. Modernity has led to us forgetting the true intentions and symbolism behind its rhythmic movements, which has led the dance to become nothing more than a mere form of exercise or entertainment. Actress and television personality Sasha Bashir preserves its roots, as she explores the traditional dances of Asian-Pacific cultures, chronicling it through Dansa – a documentary on dance. With her recent publication of the book Dansa – A Dance Journey – Sasha takes its true meaning, traditions and symbolisms to print, preserving the beauty of its movements forever.
