to the dancers out there... wanna share what i learnt in LA, amongst many other things, this is what hit me most:

dance to express, not to impress

so cliched, so overused. something i have told my juniors before, but only really understood when i am forced to dig deeper, when i am reminded to tell a story, when these amazing instructors tell me that it's all about the ATTITUDE, and when u dance they tell you to LIVE, when i am watching people dance and am moved to tears.

dance is indeed a language. and it is so obviously universal when im in the studios in US... u get people from EVERYWHERE and i mean everywhere, coming together and LIVING... doesnt matter what language you speak, where you're from, your economic status, social status... we're all in the same place for the same goal, to pick up new vocab and increase our abilities to speak the language.

so inspiring!!! :)
