In January I traveled to Goa with my cousin Devika. We spent a lot of time improvising in beautiful places, a way for us to connect to our environment and to each other. It was really special for me to be able to do something creative with Devika. Improvisation can be an intimate thing... it's hard to dance alone in front of someone for the first time!  We didn't grow up together, but being family, it didn't seem scary at all for us to improvise with total abandon--I actually felt encouraged to really let go. These clips are some of my favorites, strung together in imovie (I will eventually become a better editor, I promise). Enjoy :)

Managing Douglas Dunn & Dancers and getting to produce "Cassations" are among the most rewarding things I've done professionally. A lot of satisfaction in creative work has to come from within, so it kind of blew me away when the New York Times expressed such glowing gratitude for a work that Douglas, the dancers, and I poured so much time and love into. Here's the review.
