Dear Friend, When I first started dancing at the age of 5 I had no idea where my dance journey would take me. My only determination was to accomplish my splits (on both sides of course). I never would have imagined where that 5 year old would be today. Throughout my dance journey I’ve faced several obstacles along the process, some within my body and others within my mind and spirit however, I knew there was something bigger to find in my relationship with dance. I moved up and down California and even to the East Coast searching for a wing to be under - the person or opportunity to swoop down and guide me to a clearer end goal. I've continued to search, and as most of us know, your growth and journey within dance has NO expiration date regardless of age or ability. Being back in San Diego, my hometown is the next step in my journey. With the opportunity to represent Malashock Dance as their Outreach Coordinator, I can encourage, guide, and uplift San Diego youth as a means to give back to the community that gave me the strength to grow and spread my wings. Needless to say, I encourage everyone to embrace their process. When the high winds of life get hard to navigate, spread your wings and fly high. It will all make sense in the end. | |
