Begin Again: How to Pick Up Choreography Quickly
“I have this recurring nightmare where I’m in an audition, the choreographer is teaching at lightning speed, and my brain completely shuts down.

Our “Begin Again” series features dancer and writer Haley Hilton, taking us along with her as she returns to the dance industry after nine years of chronic illness. Each entry takes you in depth on a new topic, and is accompanied by a vlog on our UA-cam channel.
