WHAT IS MOVEMENT FOR YOU?

Honest communication.

WHAT DOES MUSICAETERNA DANCE MEAN TO YOU?

I like that there are many creative people here with different views and beliefs who at the same time adhere to the same goal. In the utopian sense, the ideal team should be like this. Different beliefs contribute to one's development as a person, and a common goal determines the process to creation.
