Tori Types Thoughts

Tori's very average blog

Work-Life-Dance

9/14/2018

 
This isn't the oft discussed work-life-balance post.  I strive for balance in my entire life, but I am still on my journey towards that perfect median.  I probably won't get there, but dancing helps! 
Summer is very busy for the dance troupe - and for a long time we were always missing a member!  I was one of the more absent members of the troupe this year and it was wonderful knowing that I had an oasis of dance waiting for me just around the corner! 

My non-dance job is very demanding and now that I am of an age where there are important events I cannot miss (weddings, birthdays and funerals), it is more important than ever for me to schedule dance for myself for my sanity.  I'm not sure if there is a point to this post beyond When in doubt, dance it out​... but I don't think there needs to be one.

The Starbelly Dancers had the chance to dance with FUSE Dance Collaboration, headed up by Shannon Keightly, at their end of season show, FUSE: Collaboration Defined. FUSE is a really vibrant and young company that has a lot of potential.  Dancing with these talented young women made me nostalgic for my ballet days -- but to be honest many of the dancers will probably reach heights in the contemporary style that past-Tori could never have dreamed of.  I hope that FUSE continues to grow in the community and reach all of it's potential - it has been fun to be a small part of it and even more fun to be a fan!  We didn't take any photos at the event, so here is an old one of me in ballerina mode.
