One year ago today, I got to share one of the most meaningful choreographic experiences of my college career.

“Under Their Own Power (Assembly Required)” was created with my incredible co-choreographer and friend @aubreylkdance for @ecudanceprogram first ever themed dance concert, Dancing in the Streets: A Celebration of Motown.

When we first started creating this piece, we wanted to explore the history of Detroit’s auto industry and Berry Gordy’s story, particularly his time as a factory worker before creating Motown. We became really interested in the ideas of assembly, repetition, labor, machinery, and what it means to take what you have been given and create something of your own.

The piece became a story about more than just a factory. It was about people, ambition, individuality, and the process of building something that could eventually become so much bigger than where it started. That idea is something that has stayed with me long after performing it.

I am so thankful to Aubrey for trusting me to create this piece alongside her and for everything we learned throughout the process. I am also incredibly grateful for our faculty mentor @jessinamst , the @ecusotd faculty, and everyone at @ecudanceprogram who supported us and helped bring this work to life.

And of course, the biggest thank you to the dancers who gave this piece so much life. I will always be grateful that we got to create and share this work with all of you.
