Just a few of the many gifts dance has given me over the years:

  • Appreciation for the art of cultures and communities different from my own
  • Long-term friendships and collaborations with creative, talented, fun, interesting, and supportive people
  • A wild delight in glitter, sparkle, light, and shadow
  • A creative outlet
  • A reason to get up and move
  • Confidence
  • Immersive, embodied experience
  • Discipline
