It took ten years of training to enter into the flow of growing the dream of establishing a boutique contemporary dance company, and following through after finishing my MFA at Cal Arts.
Around 20 years into the process, I thought, I donʻt want anyone to have to go through what I went through to realize this dream, and thought to pull together some thoughts about how I managed to manifest this dream. I invited a few other artists to contribute essays.
My process was similar as with my first book project, I THRIVE. I chunked the book out in a series of blog posts.
The intention was to create a companion production manual, the how tos, until I realized, you know what? There are as many ways to make dances as their are choreographers, and people seem to find their own way, just move on, the knowledge and know how exits, youʻll find your way.
Many blessings!
NOTE: if you happen upon this, as a dance maker, and your resources are limited, reach out, and Iʻll send you a pdf. of the bok.
I set the intention to add other book projects, and to switch the genre even.
