Tea Time with Nejla
Welcome to Tea Time with Nejla, a weekly series of short reflections exploring dance as a way of listening through the body.
Each week, I invite you to pause, pour yourself a cup of tea, and spend a few moments slowing down, listening, and reconnecting with the quiet wisdom that lives within us all.
These reflections begin with dance, yet they reach far beyond the studio. Together, we explore embodiment, creativity, time, memory, nature, aging, choreography, presence, consciousness, and the many ways movement deepens our relationship with ourselves, with one another, with the living world, and with the great mystery of being alive.
Rather than offering conclusions, these conversations remain open. They are invitations to wonder, to sense, to perceive, and to cultivate a deeper trust in the body’s quiet intelligence.
They invite us to listen not only with our ears or our minds, but with our whole being.
Many reflections conclude with a simple embodied practice or a question to carry into your day, allowing the conversation to continue long after the video has ended.
Whether you are a dancer, artist, educator, or simply someone curious about living with greater presence, I hope these reflections offer a welcoming space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and discover movement as a way of knowing, belonging, and participating more fully in life.
A new Tea Time with Nejla reflection is released each week. I warmly invite you to subscribe to my YouTube channel and return often as this growing collection continues to unfold—one reflection, one embodied practice, and one cup of tea at a time.
