Lucien's story is for the young student and dancer who is feeling like their journey is not taking them where they hoped to go. Our dreams are not always our destiny and his story is the perfect example of learning to let the universe guide you to where you are truly meant to be! Lucien is a principal dancer with Pacific Northwest Ballet, but I met him 20 years ago at my first SAB summer course, and we quickly became best friends. Our ballet careers took us in different directions and we reflect for the first time on the separation of our friendship to different sides of the country. I am so proud of his journey, where his talent has taken him, and so happy to reconnect with someone who I think of so fondly. So much to learn from this thoughtful and talented man.
