Wallace Collection 2024 🖼️ 🦢Here’s a few photos from my time dancing at the @wallacecollectioncompany , this experience was so amazing and I’m so grateful to have been a part of it <3 My piece “l’homme Cygnes” was inspired by a ‘Leda and the Swan’ Inkstand and decided to choreograph a new interpretation to the classical solo, ‘The Dying Swan’. This piece is very special to me in many ways and I loved being able to share that with an audience and especially with family and friends. I took a lot of risks with this piece and stepped out of my comfort zone choreography & costume wise and I’m so thankful to have had a lot of love and support in that aspect 💗With that being said I would like to thank specifically: Mathilde Weihrich (@math_whrch)- Thank you so much for creating such an amazing, elaborate costume for me and bringing my ideas and choreography to life, I am so grateful to have had the experience to work with you <3 Mia Jones- Thank you for the hair and makeup it was so cool to have had you bring my vision to life <3Also, lots of love and congratulations to everyone else who performed at the Wallace Collection, you guys were truly a huge inspiration and I enjoyed watching all of us grow from this experience - thank you for all the laughs 💗 Thank you also @enbschool for the opportunity <3 📸 - @chloeyukiko_ballet 📸 - @sophie.j.carter 📸 - @mselishatan by @riobarker_

Happy International Dance Day ⭐️ - Here’s a photo from my 1st Year Choreography Solo Assessment performing a piece inspired by the Greek Myth of ‘Leda & The Swan’ 🦢 - I am also very blessed to have been given the opportunity to perform my choreography @wallacecollectioncompany - I cannot wait, thank you @enbschool for the opportunity x- This piece was a really challenging one but I’ve loved choreographing this so much and testing the boundaries in certain areas, thank you for all the love and support I’ve received through the process <3🏫- @enbschool 📸 - @rian.obraonain by @riobarker_
