So lucky that 2025 was so rich in dance that I had to make an updated dance reel! Here's to continued growth, learning, and love in 2026 🐦‍🔥

#repost because I forgot a show + had technical difficulties🥴

Surprise! I've been officially diagnosed with bad turnout. Here are some of the things I'd love y'all to know about me and a peek into my day-to-day thoughts as an anteverted dancer.

Somehow posting this was harder than breaking the damn thing 🪨.

Not only is it awful being a woman in the world this week (but also in general), the struggle between how I want to present myself as feminine and how society sees videos like this feels eternal.

Ultimately, it came down to the question of: Do I want to represent myself authentically in the world, even though it's hard? The answer is always yes.

And yes, I'm also really proud of this.

Yesterday I had the honor & pleasure of taking my third degree black belt test, and earning the rank alongside my brother @maximili.on. At 3rd Dan, we have the additional honor of being instructors.

More to come, but for now, proud of us, grateful for our parents, and happy to stop getting my head smashed on the ground.
