Dreams

At times I like to dream about who I would be and what I would do if I could step into an imaginary world and have a new life. The answer is simple. . . I would be a dancer. First I would make my debut as a corps dancer in a small ballet and jazz company. Then I would leap onto the stage as a member of a Broadway Musical like "A Chorus Line", "Cats", or "Fosse". Finally, I would waltz into the ballroom and take a spin on "Dancing With the Stars". 

I love to dance. The music comes into my body, awakens my soul and inspires me to express myself through movement. I love the fluidity and grace that comes with dance. I took ballet and jazz lessons as a child. I wasn't the best dancer, but it didn't matter. I found pure joy in each plie, jete, and pirouette. 

I never wanted to be the star dancer, rather I loved being a strong member of the corps. I like to create harmony and bring color and life to the stage by supporting the prima ballerina. I believe each dancer has a role to play in any performance and I strive to be the best corps dancer on the stage.

In life I believe there is a need for stars, the leaders, and supporters. My goal in life is to help make the "star" shine brighter.
