Dancewalk — Du vert sinon j’étouffe 4/4
Danse de 5 kilomètres sur le Tégéval de la forêt de La Grange jusqu’aux serres du GPSEA (Grand Paris Sud Est Avenir) à Mandres-les-Roses

Ouvert à tout un chacune, de toutes les âges et les mobilités
Point de départ : 14h30 au parking ONF de Yerres
Durée : environ 2h

‘Bonheur Malgré Touf’
Par notre promenade dansée sur la Tégéval, nous passons du monde des fous au monde des fougères. Nous communiquons avec les arbres, les oiseaux, les insectes et les humains grâce à nos corps dansant dans la joie de l’être-ensemble. Car ces arbres centenaires ou millénaires, ça force le respect et ça s’honore: nous leur chantons, entre autres, Rendez-nous la lumière de Dominique A, Aujourd’hui de Camille, Pour la nature de Barbara Carlotti, L’univers, Sacré géranium et La transformation de Dick Annegarn.
Nous nommons aussi les initiatives citoyennes et politiques vers un monde plus écologique, respectueux de la nature. Et surtout nous dansons, nous dansons, en avançant vers la seule révolution possible, celle du retour à la vie et au respect de chacune sur terre. Car on n’arrête pas un peuple qui danse.
