From Taiwan to Miami… It’s a Small World…

That’s right!  It wouldn’t be a vacation for me without some time in the dance studio!  My high school classmate Xiao-xuan who I haven’t seen for 20 years since we graduated from Tsoying High School is now dancing with Fuzion Dance Artists.  Amazingly, the Artistic Director of the company Leymis Bolanos Wilmott and dancer Erin Fletcher were my college classmates at New World School of the Arts – University of Florida whom I also haven’t seen since we graduated from school.  People say dance  world is so small.  No kidding!  Who knew that my classmate from Taiwan would one day dance with my friend from college in Miami. Thank you so much for having me in company class and rehearsal, Fuzion Dance Artists (Sarasota, FL)!  What a special reunion with classmates from high school and college!!  Hope to see you all soon in the near future.

The work ‘Unchain’ – a breaking away and release of the past. Something we all must struggle to do at different points in our lives – that I choreographed and performed was premiered at the CenterStage in Reston on September 14 this year.  The excerpt video is now on Youtube.  Check it out!
