A month in our new home. Winnipeg 🧡 by @queeseling

A season of big change, risk, beauty, healing, and adventure ✔️ When one door closes, so many other wonderful unexpected doors will open. So thrilled to announce I’ll be joining the Royal Winnipeg Ballet this 26/27 season! And always immensely grateful for the ocean 🐚 by @queeseling

Holding on to each other. Always. Happy Anniversary my love xx by @queeseling

Oh Canada ❤️ by @queeseling

This year of the snake- real changes, real shedding. In no particular order, just moments of this year redefining, packing, moving, flying, road tripping, dancing and slowing down to see the sunset. Full of big changes and small pleasures, I’m always amazed at how much can happen in a year. So ready for 37 🐎 by @queeseling

Dancing Theme and Variations as my last show at Houston Ballet tonight. Made a big change joining this company 3 years ago and this life has asked my heart to leap further and ache more than I thought possible. The good, the bad, and the ridiculous all made it into these photo memories. What’s next?! No more chasing, only trying to show up for my true self now. There is power in pause and a beginning in every ending. So, cheers my 17th season of corp de ballet work and I am so excited for the freedom my future is bringing, along with more dancing! Being part of a team and sharing beauty in the world are still my favourite things. I am so proud and very grateful for all the growth along the way. Thank you to the beautiful humans I’ve spent this time with. 💓🤠 by @queeseling

FIRST LIGHT. A project brought together in late nights and lunch hours and made possible by the collaboration of @skylarcampbelldancecollective and @voicesofartscentral. I will be forever grateful for these passionate artists, each of us blossoming when allowed to share ourselves fully with each other and with our audience. It was a privilege to help bring this show to life, I am inspired by you all, and thankful for this special way to leave part of my heart on a stage in Houston.

Incredible 📷s by @alana.soup, impossible to choose only a few. But these are some of my favs! by @queeseling

As you take the stage for your final performance at Houston Ballet tonight, I reflect upon what artistry, humility, collaboration, and experience you have brought to this company. Everyone you have shared to stage with has felt the passion you generously share in this art form, the value you have as an artist, and the perspective you have brought as a person. Onward, toward more creativity! 🙌🏻 Proud of you. by @queeseling

“First Light” is an evening of intimacy where vulnerability takes the stage, heartfelt expression finds its voice, and connection grows in the quiet between moments. Let’s be moved and let’s be seen. ✨

Tickets are disappearing fast, so we invite you to join us to experience something beautiful unfold.

Sleeping Beauty, then and now! 🌹So many memories of this ballet over the past 16 years. Some very special moments-from my first time on stage with NBoC in 2009, tours to the capital cities of Canada and the US, my debut as beauty fairy in 2018, the super challenging but gorgeous silver and emerald, a pandemic filming, getting to revisit and dive into roles many times in Toronto, and now this week Ben Stevenson’s production here in Houston! by @queeseling
