Daring to Fall

A friend of mine forwarded this to me and I think it’s beautiful so
I wanted to share it with you all.

Daring to Fall

There is a part of you that needs to come out once in a while, the part
that is free of expectations, that opens you to new ways of being and
new realms of your heart, that is unusual and daring and not
necessarily acceptable to anyone else.

You need to find a place in your life where you can challenge the way
you have always done things, where you can risk falling down, allow
yourself to be embarrassed, strip off your shell and be vulnerable.
And yet, you need to do this in an environment that is safe enough
that your apparent failure is not ridiculed and you are not discouraged
from further experimentation.

For it is true that you discover what is enough by experimenting with
too much, that you discover what is acceptable by daring to go
beyond the boundaries. And you often find the true spark of
creativity, the little thing that is uniquely you, your special mark upon
the world, by daring to be truly different.

Find a place that is nurturing enough to let you fail, that is safe
enough to let you experiment, that is creative and exciting enough to
challenge you to take that extra step, to spin that additional rotation,
to splatter that red paint with abandon, and to use those words in new
and daring ways. Find people who will applaud your daring, gently lift
you when you fall and encourage you to get up and try again.

This is your life and it should be fun and daring, a thrilling ride in full
of surprises. So take a deep breath, step out and live.

The Growth of the Company

Tonight I had a good practice with my Performance Teams. They have a couple big shows coming up next month, so we are just finishing up the choreography and cleaning up as much as we can. I am so lucky to have such a loyal group and I’m excited for the auditions this Sunday to see what new recruits we can bring to the team. The team started in February of this year and they have come a long way, and they work so hard. I’m very proud of them.

Coca-Cola Commercial/Short

David Nieto and I were featured in this film short…

“Meanwhile…” It will play during the pre-feature entertainment at the movies starting last Friday, October 2.

It’s all about what happens in the concessions lobby while you’re inside watching the movie and it features some of LA’s best dancers: ESPN Salsa Champions David Nieto & Charlene Rose, sick local breakers “Bgirl Rissa” and “Bboy Flea Rock,” not to mention a cameo from Mary Murphy (the screaming judge from Fox’s “So You Think You Can Dance”).

It’ll be up on 21,000 screens, aka the theaters throughout the U.S. that sell Coca-Cola. “
