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.

Why do kids always kneel when I'm trying to go down to their level? This is at Art in the Park.

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.
