In the blink of an eye.

Registration is open for fall classes at and I would love for you to join me in Dance Trapeze Choreography on Fridays at 2 pm. We will work with elements of aerial choreography including sequencing, musicality, expression, pacing, use of space, and improving proficiency with spin, orbiting, and swinging. I also teach set choreography, which we use to explore those concepts. So, tell me what to make! Would you like a SURREAL, ETHEREAL, or FOREBODING mood for the choreography? I’ll get to work on it tomorrow. What do you what to see? (Photo from the recent 10th Anniversary showcase, Slay & Sway, at in Asheville.)

Join me Fridays starting August 8 at 2 pm at for Dance Trapeze Choreography. There will be spinning, orbiting, what-am-I-doing-with-my-hands-ing, hair flips, good music, and gooey s**t galore. Hope to see you! Photo by

If I’m being honest, most of the time (and certainly most of the enjoyable time) I’ve spent in the studio in the past 3+ years is this s**t: improvising, researching, nuancing, subltle-ing. It’s cool how hardship or challenge can give you the courage to be yourself. The road is the teacher.

The threshold of the year feels unmarked, unclear. A dent in the hedge; a few broken branches (easily missed) that signal a way through and into the next place. We do not enter to a meadow on the other side—there is more murky light, tangled limbs, the torturous, dizzying surround of a rhododendron forest.

My former neighbor died two days ago of COVID. From her hospital bed, she wrote a last poem via text—“ferocious and insistent,” her loved ones said. I can’t get it out of my mind. One line: “mistakes are potholes filled in with diamonds” is so blinding and beautiful; I am awestruck at the creator who leaves no lamp oil unburned.

Tell me about your murky forest; are you crawling through, branches tearing at your clothes? Are you huddled and waiting for the rain to stop so you can hear the river?

(RIP Patricia Horan. Her final poem is linked in my comment.)

What does my life mean? What’s in store? Always feeling curious and brand-new on my birthday. Thanks to all my twin souls for traveling with me through this story. Welcome, summer.

One of the coolest things that could have transpired during this weird time, did, last week, and I got to have a special part in it. .dance held its third event, and this time I got to be a curator, reviewing all the submissions and selecting some to feature. First of all, I have created work for the first two Inanimate 48 events ( and I won the first event!) and I really believe in and support this endeavor, created and directed by the brilliant . Second, I asked my community of aerial and movement artists to sign up and make something—and SO many did.

I can’t express how affirming it was to see the creations of so many of my friends and peers during this time. That my community found a way to create despite significant challenges was the highlight of the month for me. Seeing all of you, out there, doing your art—it meant the world to me to be able to witness you.

I invite you to peruse the winning entry, the honorable mentions, and all of the submissions. I would like to say a special thank you to the folks I know who submitted work. It was such a gift to see how you chose to share yourself right now.
