what am I even doing here?
Normally, in this space, you'd see a schedule for upcoming events with Lexington Ballet or CirqueLouis, festival appearances and workshops, and so forth.
Right now, in the interest of supporting social distancing to reduce the impact of COVID-19, I'm clearing this space.
When things calm down, I'll get back to posting my calendar. Likewise, if I'm going to be performing online, I'll drop a link here.
For now, stay #HealthyAtHome, everyone.

For me this comes under “stuff that happened on intensive week but God help you if dynamite or cap’n marmite suddenly calls for one now”
I was having the same problem for a long time—brisée almost never comes up in class, probably because everyone’s terrified of it, but it shows up in advanced class from time to time, at intensives, and in auditions, at which point I’d grit my teeth and approximate as hard as possible.
Fortunately, BW takes requests, so now we do it all the time in his class 😀
