Mel & Paps

A Ritual – Moving through the “Off”

by Melanie Maar

 

Melanie Maar is a dancer, choreographer and yoga teacher living in New York City. Parkinson's and her father has been and still is an omnipresent fact of life; longer than Melanie can remember. Her struggle to overcome her initial embarrassment towards her father's condition when she was very young, is a testament to her strength that she has excised her own demons to accept her father for who he is and not the condition that has encroached upon both their lifes.

The article describes her fight to overcome strongly personal and emotive conflicts, to portray both her love for her father and her father's plight, in her dance and work.
