Anna was stricken by cancer about 55 years ago. She made an unconventional decision: to heal herself by dancing. She knew in early times that dance was used for treating illnesses. Anna says being medically cured and truly healed is not the same thing. To be completely healed of a disease, you must go through a different process. To dance through sickness, one must first embrace it. Then, by working through the psychological knots and wounds it has created, negative emotions can be released.
