How special to have worked with my best friend @cocoazoitei on Duet for One by Tom Kempinski for @frintonsummer theatre 2025. Enormous gratitude to Charlie Palmer @dropfootfilm for so generously sharing his physical experience of MS which helped me movement coach Coco for the role of Stephanie.

When I dance now (with a lot less skill than my ballerina days) I know I am still blessed to be able to just move with some ease and tenderness for no good reason..more like before my ballet days I guess. Big love to all my fellow dancers out there on #internationaldancersday โฅ๏ธ
