    I cried. I can't wait to see the whole piece. I miss dancing so much and I've just discovered you as a choreographer and your masterpiece. My soul is deeply touched.

    This touchs my soul so deeply. I read in your IG account that one of the inspiration source was psalm 23, it so clear. And in my local church, we have a statement for this year "don't de afraid, in Christ we are more", I can see that so real in the first dance. Thanks u a lot for your art!

      So glad it blessed you! These are the times we need God and a Psalm 23 mindset more than ever!

    Is it possible to see full ballets somewhere? The excerpts are beautiful. I'd love to see a full performance.

    is there a DVD with more rehearsal footage or perhaps the whole performance?

    man, your choreography in still waters is breathtaking! The cadence, the naturalistic, unavoidable almost sequences feel like pushed by physics and the randomness and fuzzy logic is somehow only paying lip service to your metronome and that makes it so powerful, mesmerizing and made my heart stop for a second! Absolutely baffling piece of dance art.

      Thank you so much! That is a beautiful description of what I hoped to accomplish

    It's really nice. I'm pleased with how synchronized they are. I bet that they practised a lot.

    The fact that ballet dancers are flexible at an extreme level is truly appreciating and inspiring👏👏
    I want to be as flexible as them
