i didn't know if i was going to actually teach this or not...

four days before this event, i was in Poland, sitting in the lobby across from Kaycee, deciding what i was going to teach. and with everything going on, I didn't have any time to really prepare a piece, so i thought i would just choose one of my older pieces. But teaching for me, is a very sacred experience for me, especially in LA.

So i looked at Kaycee and just said 'F**K IT. we are in such a moment of our lives, where we are working so hard and have so much going on, and i'm sure so many other people feel the same. i just want people to understand that being the best at anything is NOT the most important thing. finding the joy and happiness throughout the process is what's important.'

i will FOREVER cherish classes like these because i get to watch so many dancers smile with each other, mess up with each other, laugh with each other, cheer each other on. THAT is dance. THAT is community. THAT is life.

so this piece is reminder for people like us who work so hard, that we forget to play hard too...


Thank you Alex and Jasmine for the incredible event and for having me.

Thank you Kaycee for the forever golden moments that I always cherish.
