This editorial introduction to the 14.2 open call issue of Journal of Dance & Somatic Practices (JDSP) provides readers with an update on the journal developments and news, followed by an overview of the articles and reviews that make up this issue.

When People Dancing’s 2013 ‘11 Million Reasons’ (11MR) project was first advertised, the vision for the photography exhibition was to ‘recreate iconic dance moments in film’. 1 When the 2016 follow-on project ‘11 Million Reasons to Dance’ (11MRTD) was conceptualised, the exhibition’s premise was described as commissioning ‘images of iconic dance moments from film, all reimagined by Deaf, sight impaired and disabled dancers’. 2 This shift from ‘recreated’ to ‘reimagined’, as well as the decision to use a RE approach at all for an intervention, was intriguing. This article explores the meaning, purpose and use of the RE prefix, evaluating its use in dance contexts, its impact when used within disability contexts and its use for the 11MRTD project, as well as considering questions raised by the project regarding the recreation of popular dance scenes in relation to the viewing of non-normative bodies by public audiences.
