Comment on Ask HN: As an adult introvertish nerd what makes you happy?

Dancing.

After seeing the book 'Impro' by Keith Johnstone recommended on HN, I read it and decided to try improvisational theater. It improved my connection to my body a lot, and as a consequence, changed my feeling of presence in the world.

Now I don't do impro as much, but I found a group of people - mostly older folks - who come together once a week and just dance. After years of dancing together in one room I still don't really know them, since it is not a social encounter.

But the feeling of being expressive through movement is one of a kind, and I feel out of place without it.
