Sharing dance creativity, connecting with artists, movers, musicians, for support and inspiration. This isn't a performance blog; I share my improvisational and warm-up dances. My most authentic movement and best creativity come out with I am unself-consciously interpreting music and exploring space. Much of the time I'm trying new moves, so I repeat them for a time, while I figure it out. Aiming for authenticity, curiosity, playfulness, community.

moving around
I spend so much of the time I am in moving things around. Furniture in our place, looking for the most functional and beautiful configuration. Thoughts in my head, looking for the most functional and beautiful configuration. Maybe if I put this over there, next to that, maybe then it'll be perfect. That's what I'm looking for, good design. What I fear most is starting with a design that is flawed from the start. Not everything is easily hidden or manipulated with a coat of paint or well-placed plant. Feng Shui of the brain.
