So, I was supposed to go to a dance party tonight.... but, instead, gave into fuzzy sucks, tea, and netflix. This is what happens when I get home from an evening rehearsal and get all cozy-like.

So, I've been somewhat M.I.A. lately... more like busy-bee. But, all good things.
-My Brazilian company has a full weekend show at Dance Mission in less than 3 weeks!
-I have my first 'self representing' solo tap performance this weekend!

A few weeks back, I set my mind to finding solo tap performances, and within a week, I got one! I am soooo ridiculously excited. This is the first time I have ever done a performance in which I will be representing myself. So, naturally, I decided to create a new piece with a bit of music in the beginning. Needless to say, I have been working my ass off trying to get it done and polished ASAP. Creating a tap piece from scratch takes a lot of time... its a bit like writing a song- different rhythms, tempos, layers... all have to fit together. So, with just a couple of weeks and very limited access to a studio, my creative/rhythmic process has been really rushed. But, all will be well (awesome).

I'm listed as one of the performers. Just me! Yay!!

I like making things happen. It just feels so good.

And now my musical love...



I miss Mexico more than I can say.
