This is me dancing.

It's hard to write a brief blurb about yourself when it starts like this: I graduated with a degree in Performing Arts and Social Justice, with an emphasis in Dance. I ended up in Los Angeles where I'm attempting to start a business and make my way as an artist. One day, I woke up and went hey, I think I'm actually a starving artist. I primarily perform as a professional belly dancer, but also still have the occasional modern dance gig.

These are the things that Inspire me and the things (I like to think) I've learned, especially about being a dancer in LA. I also like to pass on information about classes, auditions and more in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

balletballetballet: Maria Kochetkova - The Nutcracker (via www.mariakochetkova.com) I first started dancing at 4 and took ballet class (and only ballet) for a while.  Unfortunately, I’ve just never had the kind of facility in my body that ballerinas need and I eventually stopped because I was just so frustrated with the fact that I couldn’t do what I wanted to.  I ended up discovering modern and jazz and I think that ultimately those are the forms that speak to me and my body the most, but I still have a soft spot in my heart for ballet and I think I always will, even though now I don’t really have the desire to dance like that anymore.
