today i went to Jacob's Pillow for the first time in my life! for those of you who do not know, Jacob's Pillow is a dance venue that is outside in the country of Massachusetts. it is serene and beautiful. i was going to see my dear friend Cindy Salgado perform with Kidd Pivot. They did a show called Dark Matters which totally blew my mind. the dancers were unbelievable, the way they combine technique with pure raw talent and a passion for moving really inspired me to be better than i am. they moved like liquid being pored into a glass, like ice freezing slowly. they used a small puppet and were able to show so much emotion through tiny movements. it made me realize that you can never stop learning and growing, there is always a higher level to reach. i want to reach another level with my own understanding of movement.
which is kind of amazing timing for me considering i have a chance to dance next week in front of an audience. i get to take extremely new movement and try to make something remarkable out of it. i have a chance to be my very best. i am going to work as hard as i can to make these shows the best they can possibly be, and maybe i can inspire someone like Kidd Pivot inspired me. who knows....
