Our blog is back - Jyoti and Rojina share their passion for dance

After a few years of publishing and sharing the creative musings of the students in different forums, we have decided to reinvigorate the Dream Speakers blog! 

We plan to regularly post ideas, essays, poems, stories, conversations, artwork and other creative outpourings from our passionate students with you. 

To begin with, here's a conversation with Jyoti  (aged 16) and Rojina (aged 10) about their passion for dance and how dancing makes them feel.
