Summary/Abstract: My whole life dance has been an inspiration for me. Ever since I was a child I loved dancing and singing. My everyday life was passing in the rhythm of music. It was that experience that got me into the philosophy of dance and that is when I first encountered Shusterman’s pragmatist aesthetics. It was interesting to me because Shusterman kept on saying it was his own experience with actual dancers that inspired its development. I started to wonder if performances such as Xavier Le Roy’s Untitled fall within the assumptions of somaesthetics.
