Going back…back to doing things because I love doing them, not because I should “keep it up”. Getting to the point of it all: joy.

Today I was reminded that you don’t need to do things so you can become the best. You can just do things because you LIKE DOING THEM. It’s kind of a “duh” thing to say, but in this world where over-achievement and constant talent is recognized as success, its easy to forget that we are allowed to just enjoy something - whether we are good or not!

What’s something you love to do?

100%! I was definitely the worst in my advanced modern dance class in college…

At least that’s how I felt. I really struggled to get through and always stayed in the back.

I wish I remembered that being the “worst” is actually a pretty great starting point. You get to learn from all of the people around you, you get to feel things for the first time, you get to be inspired all over again, you get to look back and be proud of yourself for going for it. And more — people will likely learn from you. Yes it’s tough, but you’re never as bad as you think!

There is a lot of “new” happening to me now. I’m a new mom. I have a new body. New priorities. Soon a new apartment. I’m thinking about creating again after so much time away. I’m nervous but excited, because there is still a lot of unknown. I’d like to be gracious with myself and take this brave mentality into these adventures!

Anyone feel me on this?! ✨

Hand in hand. One foot in front of another.

Pushing through space together.

Here’s to my partner in life (Seán!) and to all of you — my movement partners and online dance community.

Let’s continue to make space for one another, hold on and fight for what we love, and keep pushing forward to a better and brighter future.

Feeling overwhelmed with the year-end?

I feel you! And I also got you...I’m teaching a Year-End Fundraising class through Gibney Dance this Friday. I know the word “fundraising” can sound icky but I’ll try to make it as fun as possible! 😉We’ll go through some tips and tricks around asking for support during this time of year (and in general).

See you there? Link in bio!

Hey Dance Fam! There are less than 30 days left in 2020! 🎊 What do you want - or what do you need - in order to finish this year in good spirits?

For me, I need more quiet moments for myself. But I would also love as many moments with loved ones and friends as I can (even if it has to be over yet another Zoom call instead of in person 🙄😅)

Where are you guys at?

New blog up! 🧘🏽‍♀️ I’m not a meditation expert by any means but I’m surrounded by some people who are and has been gracious enough to write a few words on how important this self-practice is.

Sometimes it’s easy for artists to “lose themselves” in a process and adding meditation to our artist toolkit will only help empower us.

Dancers are naturally in touch with their mind-body connection so in a way I feel like I’m preaching to the choir about this, but I hope you find it a good read and useful!

And, on the blog, there is a free download for further reading on this topic. Link in bio or go to www.RahDanceWorks.com ❣️
