Part 2/2 of the little diddy I had taught a couple weeks ago to my favorite @katedmonson song, “Lucky"🥰 If you don’t know who Kat Edmonson is, she is an absolute gem, and you need to go listen (and maybe dance) to her music right now.

Swipe through to see why I can’t actually be trusted with the camera remote. Or responsibility in general… #newyearsameme #notsorry #manchild #GOTEM

An improvisation showing how badly needed this two-week teaching break is.

Final performance of “The Tempest” today at 2:00pm. This has been an incredible, surreal, life-changing experience to dance alongside the LA Phil, LA Master Chorale, the Old Globe, and so many amazing dancers. This final performance is dedicated to my wonderful family and especially to my Yin-Yin, Landes Chin, who passed away on October 17, the day before we began rehearsing for this. The last time she saw me dance was in 2012, but I know that she will be watching me from up above this afternoon. There are countless individuals who have helped me get to where I am, and to all of you, I am so thankful for you and your support. Toi toi toi, Tempest cast.❤️

Thank you so much, Ms. Robinson and Lick-Wilmerding Dance Ensemble and Dance 1. More than anything this week, more than ever, I needed to dance it out, and I am so grateful and blessed that I got to share this beautiful space and dance with you over the past three days. I know that my Yin-Yin is smiling and laughing with so much joy watching us from Heaven. #DanceIsTheAnswer #ThankYou #blessed (at Lick-Wilmerding High School)

So many highs and lows in such a short amount of time. What a day, what a week, what a past COUPLE of weeks… Trying to remember when I wasn’t in a constant hustle and when things were less frustrating. Or maybe trying to look forward to when I won’t be in a constant hustle and when things will be less frustrating. #itgetsbetter I guess

Here’s a recent post- teaching diddy.

Beside every great man stands an even greater woman. Not behind, but beside. You’re also not a woman. Thank you for standing next to me and supporting me through all of my endeavors, from proofreading applications and proposals to cooking for and feeding my endlessly hungry stomach. Thank you too for keeping the blindfold and earphones in for your surprise. ❤️❤️❤️ (at Orange County Great Park)

Improvisation: bound, direct (and small) movement. Wasn’t always successful.
