Events Mid-Year Virtual Retreat: July 9, 2-4 pm ET Coterie Waitlist: Opens late 2022 performance video Mentioned in the Show There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others. —Martha Graham 2019 "Performance" Broche Ballet BAE Vitality Ballet The Whole Pointe The Dancer Next Door Adult Ballet Collective #560 Interview with Jojo on the Ballet Lifestyle Worksheet Journaling prompts: 1.
