Artemis Show

My feelings about this here clip were noted a few days ago.

That being said, I've lightened up a bit since then. The zills are clunky, sparse, and predictable... but it was my first time on a large (for Tokyo) stage with a sold-out crowd playing zills. Two months before, before the restaurant because a regular thing,  I'd only played zills in public three times, I think I have gotten better. I'm still hating on a few things...and odd lurch here, an anticipated moment there, my right angle arms at moments and spins, unfinished moved I should have slowed down and followed through...but there are small moments where I see the dancer that I think I am...

Constructive comments are welcome, just be gentle. Realize that this is about 8 months ago and that I've had some influencial workshops and breakthrough moments since then...God, I hope I have. This will remained unfiltered for a bit.

Hey, you're getting there! Your fluidity (as many people mentioned) and grace will be one of your lasting trademarks. I admire you for dancing to some challenging (to me) music. Good arms too! I've seen too many dances ruined by bad arms.

The only thing I wanted to see more of was more pretty face--maybe your hair held back over one ear by an ornament or flower? Or maybe some bodacious glittery hoop earrings?

Keep on, keep on- and thanks for posting your video. I enjoyed it.

I really need to do some serious investment into figuring out a hairclip system that stays. I should probably hit the craft store and make some costume-matching hairclips and figure out the best hairclip and bobby pin security system.

An thank you for the fluidity/grace comment. It takes a while to really hear and absorb what people say....because while I have been saying "thank you" I also have been blanking on that particular comment because grace and fluidity are just two things I never think of myself as having.
