Artistic Stamant
As a child I loved to explore the unknown with a sense of curiosity. Finding new pathways through the unknown and letting my imagination take me on an adventure. I carried that child-like curiosity and exploration throughout my work. Whether it is though learning a new dance style, exploring new ways to move, or choreographing. As a dancer I find it interesting to explore how the body moves, pushing myself physically and creativity. I will always consider myself a student, well more of someone who loves to expand their knowledge. I love learning from my friends, peers, mentors, teachers, and myself. I often find my passion driven by my heart. Dance is a way that I can express my feeling where sometimes I cannot find the words to say. When I am dancing, it comes from my core and radiates throughout my limbs all the way to my figure tips. As I grow older, I find that my passion for dance still has that child-like curiosity to it.
