The Mystic of this mistress is magnetic
Almost hovering on the hypnotic
And yet…
In the unforgiving toughness
Is the challenge to continue
In her demands to deliver
Is the discipline of approach
In the chiding of the critiques
Is the attempt to evolve
Beyond the punishing schedules.
And in that trusting knowing
Actors act, sculptors sculpt
Writers write, painters paint
Singers sing, dancers dance
Finding purpose in the passion
In the artistry of creativity.
And as art empowers in the connectivity
Life carries on…!
Savvy Raj
Feel like sharing a blast from the past.
I wrote this as a self reflective piece, on what it is to be a teacher, trainer or educator and its varied perspectives in life and living.
There is always more than what meets the eye…
# Behind the scenes
When I say I am a Ballroom and Latin dance form trainer… there is this natural association with everything glamorous, high heels, fancy bare all clothes, svelte tanned bodies , hairdos and glitter, there is youth, shows and events galore, a fancy personal life filled with parties and a fabulous nightlife life may be .
Far from it is the truth, actually it’s so much more than just that, it’s about raising your conscious awareness in harmony and balance of the mind and body .
It’s about empowering your mind and heart with care and understanding of the relative nonverbal communication sensed through the medium of movement as patterns.
It’s about taking time to internalize at times complicated moves yet being able to be at ease with your own self so much that the strain of practice never shows.
It’s about making friends with your mental physical and spiritual body and creating a dimension of composure and gratitude for another to be inspired enough to want to learn from you.
It’s a huge responsibility, to make a connection with a human being and sustain it gratefully whether it is for a class a, a dance or a lifetime. Savvy Raj
It’s a huge juggling act more so, if you have other interests as well, professionally and even personally, being a mother, a wife, a daughter and most of all a free spirit. Its about understanding the perspective of the space in between all that you are and all that you want to be and managing your creative resources the best you can.
As one fine tunes the self to understand and accept the value of the pauses between our moves we reach to our potential heights gradually and learn to be at peace within and around us.
In the truest realm when we focus on any art form it’s about bringing discipline and dedication in every aspect of one‘s life , learning and growing all the way .In the journey that‘s ever enriching, with experiences that must be savored along the way.

Trust the self implicitly.
Treat the self with dignity
Create your life by owning up to the person you are.
Value yourself enough to be yourself.
Care to be your own best friend!
As you heartfully accept and trust yourself,
The intuitive you already knows your path.
You will be guided to where you ought to be,
And you will awaken to what you ought to do.
So, treat yourself lovingly.
Be an ally, not an enemy to yourself.
Care to be good to yourself
Because in sifting through this journey of life,
It truly helps to have a friend in you.
There is more to loving the self than what meets the eye. The heartfelt self-centering in every step of the way of evolving, from within to the without, is a deeper understanding that the world needs kindness even more. And it needs to move from core consciousness outward and circulate in the flow.
As you feel comfortable in connecting with who you are, as you are, you feel comfortable connecting with the people around you.
Treat the self lovingly, the best you can, no matter the circumstances, and you will emanate the love that you sense from within all around you and into the world at large.
Life becomes easier and lighter to handle as you strengthen your inner spirit and move away from self-sabotaging behaviours.
Believe in yourself to be all that you can be; you owe it to the life in you. As you start loving yourself, you start to believe in yourself, and as you start to believe yourself, you begin to value your life, and as you begin to value your life, you begin to define the purpose of your being.
A few tips to being your own best friend:
Believe that you matter, and never ever take yourself for granted.
Trust your inner spirit; remember you are unique; and trust all is well.
Keep choosing positive and pleasant thoughts, and care to step out of your own way.
Behave responsibly, and choose to live your life lovingly.
Respect and take care of your body, mind and spirit.
Love yourself as you are, but care to evolve for the better.

While we live at leisure in peace
Countless live in fear of war.
While we sleep safe, tucked in our bed
Countless are fleeing their homes
With rising terror and conflicts
There are countless deaths and destruction.
While we take our breath of air for granted
Countless gasp for a breath of air.
While we drink and make merry
Countless thirst for a gulp of water
While some children have pillow fights & pyjama parties.
Countless have no bed or clothes on them.
While we choose to waste the food on our
plates
Countless starve, with no food to eat.
Many things we take for granted
Many things that we can help alter.
About time we cared in our sensing of the why.
As every one of those countless faces matter between the you and I.

Realization of love, compassion and connection within and the ensuing actions in empathy is the beginning of true wisdom.
Lets make way for a peaceful world.
Savvy Raj
Every beat of the heart matters
Every heartfelt intention makes a difference.
Every moment of time is precious.
Every blissful heart knows!
Savvy Raj
Breathe in ease breathe in peace and you will breathe out love. Our breathe is an energy in action that interconnects us all and even subtle positive changes can gradually cause profound vibrational impacts.
Breathe in peace breathe out love💙💙💙
