A little insight on some past versions of me that made me who I am today…

*And actually, I still share through the art and expression of my body and soul, just in a different way 🫶

Reflections…

1 month ago I celebrated my 40th birthday and though I thought I didn’t have an issue with the number, on the morning of my birthday it kind of hit me. It made me reflect why there was a sadness present. I allowed myself to sit with those feelings to see where it was coming from…

And it wasn’t the number 40, I realised it came back to a lot of certain expectations I had, certain dreams, certain desires that didn’t happen. Knowing what’s potent inside of me and knowing that those things didn’t come to fruition, was very difficult.

And so, that morning, the feeling I had, was a realisation of; wow, I can’t turn back time. I can’t go backwards, not that I want to, but realising the attachment I had of certain things that I thought would have happened in my 30s, professionally and personally.

I held on to expectations and it made me reflect;

Where do certain expectations hold us back and where does it block the energy?
How can we release it, to allow flow?

Sitting with my feelings and allowing space for it to move through me and reflect, was liberating and powerful… It opened me up to the celebration of life, with all its shifts and changes.

Maybe this is relatable 🫶

With love,
Céline 💜

Forever a big part of me. Dance was my first passion and profession and still now it weaves into everything I share. Some experiences that shaped me and others that showed me my path.
It’s hard to believe that it has been already 3 years since I last was on stage. It somehow still feels so close and present and at the same time there has been a major shift. I still yearn that need to express myself through my body, through dance and I know it still has its place and will continue to evolve in its own rhythm, in its own way. A way to express my emotions, my feelings, my words.

Voor steeds een groot deel van mij. Dans was mijn eerste passie en beroep en nog steeds weeft het in alles wat ik deel. Sommige ervaringen die mij hebben gevormd en andere die mij mijn pad lieten zien.
Het is moeilijk te geloven dat het al 3 jaar geleden is dat ik voor het laatst op het podium stond. Het voelt op de een of andere manier nog steeds zo dichtbij en aanwezig en tegelijkertijd is er een grote shift geweest. Ik verlang nog steeds naar die noodzaak om mezelf uit te drukken via mijn lichaam, door middel van dans en ik weet dat het nog steeds zijn plaats heeft en zal blijven evolueren in zijn eigen ritme, op zijn eigen manier. Een manier om mijn emoties, mijn gevoelens, mijn woorden uit te drukken.

Support

A little reminder that we are not alone. Reach out for support, but also importantly remember you can always support yourself too. Be there for yourself first and let others add to it. Because sometimes we just need that guiding hand 💖

Celebrating all artists, performers and the whole crew involved (at the front and backstage making it happen) and our audiences on #worldtheatreday

How I miss it sooo much!! Being able to express myself on stage through dance. I am so grateful to have performed in so many amazing theatres all over the world. It is a part of me that I am missing at the moment. 

We go through so much in theatres apart from the performing part; the rehearsals, the anticipation, the laughs, the crying and all sorts of emotions, and the friendships, sharing our experiences and supporting each other.

We will be back, I will be back. In the meantime, keep going, keep growing 💖

It's not about becoming one year older, 
but one year wiser, having learnt more about life, yourself and others..

It has been a year full of hopes, desires, with different outcomes, filled with a mix of laughter, tears, hurt, joy, new lessons and understandings, surprises, the good and the bad, finding myself, deep inner healing, happiness, sadness, missing, love, connection, friendships, family and everything more we experience on this journey of life, that I am grateful for. 

Even though this year, honestly, turning 35 makes me reflect a lot. But also reminding myself of finally having been able to let go of certain things that needed to fall away this last year and capable of opening myself up for other things that needed to find their way (back) into my life. Truly seeing where I come from and have become, and will continue to grow further into..

Let's celebrate each day of our life, reminding ourselves what a gift it is 💖

Beautiful 📸 @ballerinaprojectuk
