    Sometimes we're so used to seeing the finished product we don't see all the work that went in to getting there.
    I'm not even a dancer, I'm a writer but I took so much from this because the writing process is always a struggle!
    It's so easy to give up and just be in awe of authors of finished works and articles without realizing they went through this too!

I'm a dancer myself and watching you re-create this dance piece was inspiration for me to try and do the same thing! Who knows I might do a reveal myself. It was such a joy to watch you put yourself out there with flaws and all until you finally made the final dance piece your own! Much respect to you! Keep doing what you're doing!
