My First day of Lava for this year!

Today was my first day of training for acrobatics. I work in such an amazing space with such talented people at this company. This place is like a second home to me. We work on moving around the space and working in ways I could have never learned elsewhere. I have learned to trust people at this company. We have fun, laugh, and some of my greatest memories are in the walls of the studio. On the first day we worked on a little trapeze but mostly just warming up and getting back into shape. Usually we work on some pretty cool things. We learned how to choreograph pieces and how to move in relation to sound. We work together using no obstacle but each other.

Another reason I love this group is that it is an all women performing company that supports feminism and showing the world how strong women can be. I am in Magma, the junior company of Lava, another all-women performing troupe.  

Though I have a lot of fun at Magma, we are also a professional company. I help teach a kid's class and we also have training for three hours where we work really hard to stay in shape. We have performances around the city that we train and rehearse for. We also host a benefit/ performance at our studio to bring the community together. We invite dance clubs and organizations to come perform. It is called Magma Mix. Maybe MS: 447 could perform there!!

Lava is such and amazing place to work- Lava is my dance experience!

Below is a video about my company... If you look closely you can see me in it!
