I started off my day in a hot yoga studio at 7am , releasing large beads of sweat, releasing the toxins I’m sure I hold onto for way too long.
I want to live in a world where I and everyone around me can release what holds us down, what keeps us away from experiencing intense emotions that make us human.
I want myself and others to move our bodies freely in dances that we can get lost in, that we can experience lightness, flow, and joy in.
I want to be part of communities that are endlessly supportive of one another’s dreams and creative expression.
I want to be part of collaborative spaces where we can all bring our whole selves and openly explore our many other selves and not be judged for it.
I want to dance, love, laugh, feel, and live freely among people who are not held back from societal rules and expectations.
Traveling, creating, building community, growing as a dancer and healer, continuing to build physical and mental strength are how I want to spend my days.
And I want to invite others around me to do the same.
