Why I Chose Movement

I started dancing when I was 3 years old, so I don’t really remember a time without movement being a part of what I do. I took classes in creative movement, tap dance, ballet, and even a little tumbling. As I grew, I was on dance competition teams, and frequently performed on stage. Even in the marching band, I was asked to demonstrate proper marching for others because I embodied good balance and a tight, precise technique. I loved performing as a dancer as well as an actor, but I soon realized that movement was not just something I did… it was a part of who I became. I didn’t realize that until I went some years without it. When I realized how much I missed, I decided to never be without it again.
