How can a dancing body be a poetry-body?

Each dancing body is a body that explores its own movement. It is a body that finds in another the possibility of being resonant of the movements of the world. They are biographical bodies that tell a story, that share an artistic experience and, on stage, create the object of dance. There, in that place of existing, they get emotional and can make others emotional. They are a poetry-body.
