  Quietly making a life in dance. On your own terms. Is a beautiful thing.   It is perfectly acceptable to yearn for a success that has little to do with insta-fame or your name in lights. It is also perfectly acceptable to dream of those exact things.  Not every soul was created to burn brightly for all to notice. That energy doesn’t feel right to every person. There are many quotes on social media about “hard work makes dreams come true”.  It’s inspiring but the truth is that some doors might not open for you. It is frustrating but there can be power on the other side of this. The power of choice. Asking yourself what feels natural, organic and real for you. We all have the uncle who keeps asking us when we will be on SYTYCD! As if there is only one road to success... Where is your magic? Where do you feel the most alive? Creating a world inside of another world on an empty stage with a gesture and a breath can be magic. Magic can also be a develope to the heavens. Don’t be fooled
