Congrats to Janna, newest member of KDH Dance. Just signed her today.

And Jessica makes the nonet.

Let's start rehearsals already!

I've spent hours, days, weeks on this final report for the city, and I just can't seem to get 'er done.

As to other recent events, my mantra is high road. Take the high road. Always. The high road.

Our fall season commences tomorrow with a company meeting, contract signings and contact improv. Finally.

Making a new work fosters a combination of fear and excitement in me.

I'm always nervous about working with new dancers, but Jessica and Janna blew me away during our first rehearsal weekend.

Just got word that one of my dancers is too sick to attend rehearsal. I have 30 minutes to figure out how to build a trio with 2 people.

Problem solved: mannequin.

These dancers are so good, and they are making me work so fast. My brain can't keep up.

Just finished watching all the video footage from today's rehearsal. Happy.

In the studio, I'm building my new dance forward, but in my creative thinking time, I'm working backwards.

Dance Observation #1: We know when you are filling time, trying to get to the end of the music. Get back in the studio or get new music.

Dance Observation #2: Adults acting like children. Keep trying if you want, but I've never seen it work.

Dance Observation #3: Unless it is absolutely critical to getting your point across, no more running in circles.

Dance Observation #4: Great dancing is greatly appreciated.

The undoing of nonet has begun. Just had a dancer quit on me. That's a first.

Backstage shenanigans.

I just got the phone call you don't want to get from a dancer 4 days before a show: I broke my foot.
