Holiday Performances


In honor of the holiday season, I decided to blog about my most recent ballet show called 'Twas the Night Before Christmas.



Here is the link to a video of me rehearsing a modern/ballet dance called Wind (it is not the dance pictured above). I loved performing this dance because I really felt the music flow through my veins and my body react to the flowing music notes. My emotions became entwined with the movement of my body and as the stage lights beamed down upon me, a sense of peace and belonging filled my heart, for there is no place I would rather be than performing on stage. I can only hope that I conveyed my passion and emotion to the audeince well enough so that they felt they were part of the equation that gave me such a rush for those few minutes. However, most dances in holiday perdormances are lighter and they are a great way for the whole family to get into the holiday spirit by supporting the fine arts. All Christmas dance shows, from the San Francisco Ballet Company's the Nutcracker to a production from any local company, are a great experience to both dancers and regular families. I hope that this season you have the opportunity to attend such performance with your family. Happy Holidays!
