Pointe-d Morning

A dancers soul is in her feet and her heart and some would say they are same and work just as hard.

Semi club as not all dancers are on dA.

ABOUT ME:

I think some people may be surprised, they think that I’m all fragile and ethereal—and that’s lovely, it’s flattering. It's all I've really let anyone see, up to this point. But I have a wild side too. I like to bang on things and cause a ruckus every now and then. I’m a quiet person with a loud streak. I like both. My dancing is a testament to that.

I love to sing and write songs with a tuneful piano charm and whimsical language and with others, add new colors and textures, with louder guitars and beats.

Dance and touring is my life.
After coming home from my first big tour I didn't know how to be. My life had really changed. I was tired and burned-out, and sick of being on the road, but I also had learned a lot from the musicians we (my troupe) had toured with and wanted to put it to use. I needed music to ground me, to figure life out and to make myself happy. So I started exploring new music and dance that led me to the conclusion that the ethereal, haunting feel of all my original chorography wasn’t the only weapon in my arsenal. On my first tour, I felt very young, and I think I made up for it by being very serious... about everything... This time, I didn’t want to limit myself. I wanted to stretch and grow and push myself past my comfort zone. I also wanted to have fun.

I discovered that, while I love dancing beside piano and classical music and having quiet moments with the audience, I also love rocking out and having a good time. I started expanding my tastes, I started jazz and modern dance on the side and listening to as much music as I could get my hands on. Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan and the Talking Heads changed my life.


It was the most unruly I’d ever been. Change scares me—but I know that about myself. Usually when I'm scared, it's an indication that I ought to plow ahead. It's not particularly easy and I would love if it weren't the case, but it tends to work.

That’s who I am, that’s the way I see the world, it’s broadened, but it hasn’t changed. On tour, some of the most amazing moments came in seeing the world: parks, mountains, rivers, oceans. That reminds me of who I am as a human being, and whatever I do, I’ll find a way to work with those elements.

I feel like being daring, I’m interested in doing more of the same. That doesn’t inspire me, so I’m just going with whatever is exciting to me. And now, I can’t wait to get on the road with this stuff! It’s going to be quite an undertaking, but I’m up for it. :thumb128116608:

One thing to say..
