ABOUT PAUL REINIG

Paul grew up in the 60s. As a kid he struggled with lack of self-esteem and was often persecuted by other kids. When he graduated from high school he was full of fear and self-doubt, so much so that at the age of 21 he allowed himself to be swallowed up by a religious organization (The Unification Church) where he stayed until he finally mustered up enough courage to break free in 1998. Since then, nothing has been more important to him than understanding himself and the purpose of his life.

In the last several years Paul went through a lot of inner soul searching, developing a love and compassion for himself in the process that he never knew he had. He discovered that there is a safe and sacred space within where the real Paul lives.

He had a good paying job and was basically content with it, although deep inside he knew there had to be a way he could express himself in a more enjoyable way. But hey, when you feel you have things under control, you don’t want to rock the boat, right? But then, in February 2010, the company he worked for went out of business, giving him some time to re-think, or better put, to re-feel who he is and what he could do that would be fun while at the same time, make a difference in the lives of others.

That’s when the idea of New Energy Dance Expression was born. He now offers to you his understanding and experience, through words and through dance. You too can choose to create a safe and sacred space within. It is a place where peace dwells. Through your breath you can feel it. It is a space where you need nothing, where nothing really matters. While in your safe space your mind is quiet. The choices you make while in this space will absolutely serve you. And, once you've created your own safe space it will only continue to expand.

The reason Paul created New Energy Dance Expression is because he feels dance is a wonderful way to get in touch with this safe and sacred space within you. Back in the early 80s he began studying martial arts (Tongil Moo Do) and went on to become a second degree black belt. One of the expressions this style offered was a ballet in which katas were performed to music. Later, in the late 90s, he Square Danced for two years and in 2007, dabbled a bit in Ballroom Dancing. Recently he Line Danced for more than a year, often four times a week. Throughout his life he has always loved to go to a concert any chance he could, especially outdoor festivals, where he’d dance up a storm, often becoming an attraction on the side, pulling people’s attention away from the main event. The spirit of New Energy Dance Expression has blossomed out of this love of Paul’s to be fully expressed.

In addition to providing a studio where you can express yourself through dance, Paul gives seminars. Through cultivating absolute acceptance, Paul has learned how to love the aspects of him that wreak emotional havoc. He can help you develop tools to use when things feel overwhelming. Instead of panicking you can go to your safe and sacred space where you can comfort and nurture yourself. In his seminars, part of the day he shares his experience in how to love your aspects and part of the day you have an opportunity to express yourself through dance. For more information about these seminars, including times and locations, see Events.
