This dance work was a new exploration for me. Typically, when I create dance I go into the room with my dancers and use whatever stimulus or inspiration that comes to mind. This usually results in a big mess that somehow gets put together and placed on a stage. Though this method works, I decided to challenge my creative process and go into the studio with an entirely new idea. For this piece, I approached the process with a specific vision and with very specific movements. The end result shocked me, for I never thought I could create a dance work that is visually pleasing. My professor’s saw the potential within this piece, and with great honor, they’ve chosen this work to represent the university at the American College Dance Association. During this conference, I will be able to learn and get feedback from various dance professionals, this is very important to me because I can begin to get my name out in the dance world and make connections that will help me transition from my journey as a College Dancer to a Professional Dancer and Choreographer.
