captivated by Lisa’s daring solo adventures around the globe

under the influence.

Lisa’s engrossing and enchanted tales transport me to an expansive potential
within to invite the unknown and to welcome a broader scope of experience for
the pure joy of living more freely and more fully. Love this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dance as an adventure

“Dance Life” by Lisa Alpine is unique, creative, and interesting, just like I imagine Lisa is. This enthralling book is a travelogue, an unpredictable tale of adventures, and part thriller. Lisa’s planned itinerary turns into escapades, some funny and some dangerous, but always entertaining. I look forward to reading all of Lisa’s books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Will make you want to get up and dance!
Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2020
Lisa Alpine's memoir, Dance Life tells of her dance experiences around the world. The dance moments are spontaneous, joyous and communal and will have you asking, "Why don't I dance more?" For Lisa, dance is prayer, an ecstatic release and a way to communicate. In Albania, Egypt, Cuba and Morocco and many other far-flung places Lisa tells of dance encounters that are daring and liberating.

I really enjoyed the read and felt I'd been taken on a worldwide journey of joy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sensational Storytelling!
Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2020
I loved this book so much that I only allowed myself to read one chapter at a time. I didn't want to rush through it as I do so many of the other books I've read. This one needed space and time. I wanted to savor each adventure along with the author. Lisa Alpine is a master storyteller! She shares her true-life adventures with a keen sense of observation, great sense of humor and, most importantly, her love of dance. A true inspiration for people to follow their passion and discover more about themselves along the way. Brava!
