Kenny Afton and A&C Fusion

Kenny Afton: (starts recording camera) Hi guys! This is Kenny Afton and Arts and Crafters. This is Baldi's school. Wow, there are so many yesterday that my brother took me to bite Fredbear with their mouths.

All: Yeah!

Arts and Crafters: (laughs) Wow, that's great. Well.

Playtime: Wow!

Arts and Crafters: Woah, I can't believe the parents have forgotten to fuse with you. Let's see it guys! All right, Kenny, let's fuse!

Kenny Afton: ...

Arts and Crafters: Don't cry like that, Kenny.

(Kenny Afton sniffs, moans turn to smiles)

Arts and Crafters: Uhh, okay.

(Kenny Afton wipes tears from eyes with arms and hands, after wiping tears away)

Kenny Afton: I'm fine.

(Kenny Afton and Arts and Crafters nod, dancing, playing on guitar and brushes)

All: Oh yeah, whoa! Wow!

(Kenny Afton and Arts and Crafters fuse)

Fluffy Crafters: Oh yeah, what do you know? Hi guys, this is Funtime Kitty! This is him! Yeah!

All: Wow!

Baldi: What a snitch!

Tendou and Ushijima fusion dancing. I’m having Tendou lead, because Fusion dance requires a lot of creativity, spontaneity, improvisation and a free spirit, and I think that fits Tendou more than Ushijima.

I really miss fusion dancing, I haven’t done it in a while and there just isn’t much of a fusion dance scene in my hometown. This year I skipped on a few fusion weekends I wanted to go to because I was worried about my finances, but I think I should be able to go next year! I’m hoping Justin Riley will be teaching again. I was watching videos of him dancing earlier tonight, and that motivated me enough to finally finish this thing. 

Because I’ve been sitting on this piece since like, August. So you could say it was looooonggg overdue, but I’m so glad it’s finally done! I’m really proud of it too, I think I’ve improved a lot since picking up drawing again back in April. :) Hope you like it too!

Quick Post: International Dance Day

Hey Beautiful People,

I took a break from hospital life to check in with you lovelies. Apparently, yesterday was International Dance Day. Seeing posts from old friends in the dance community made me realize how much I miss dancing and human connection, especially in a physical sense. Sharing physical space and time with someone is its own special kind of magic.

Wherever you are in this world, I hope you find the time and motivation to dance, and hopefully with someone you love. Hopefully, we’ll all dance together again soon.

With Love,

Tola

Long post about fusion dancing and OI but mostly contact improv

Honestly I just had the best contact improv dance of my life? It was blindfold day and we started by walking around the room and making contact with people in soft accidental ways and then we paired up and left pairs a few times and we convened in one big pile of a contact dance and I couldn't see throughout all of this so it was a very different experience when you can't see who it is. And I was way more connected through my torso and pelvis and thighs than usual, but I also used my arms a lot and as a partner dancer connection is my melty gooey happy place, like that's why I got into blues and subsequently fusion dancing through lindy hop. I followed the dance to more and more connected styles until I found my fusion happy place. And this whole hour was SO connected. And then we paired up one final time and I thought it was a few different people before it figured out it was Ethan and he knows about my OI and bones and he was really sensitive of that and he listens so well. In the past it's felt like a limitation to what I could do and it's led to some difficult moments of being scared to test my limits but not in this dance. There were awkward moments of not knowing how to follow through with a movement but it was never awkward and it was so connected and so intense and so intimate it was just like. The gooey-est dance ever. It felt like all my background came together for this amazing blindfolded dance of just touch and my fusion dancing informed the dance and my OI informed the dance and it didn't feel like a limitation, it was just part of it. It was such a nice feeling and such a nice dance and I hope I partner with him again in the future.
