Shot back in Oct 2k7.. meteor, double staff, contact staff, poi and a wee bit o juggling. Mostly crap, but it was a bad day for spinning. I hadn't planned on releasing this, but I found some tidbits that I liked and wanted to build upon (and I think this is the only meteor vid I have) and I was compelled to release another vid (I blame the music, I love the music). Sorry the quality isn't up to par.

    very nice!

    So what do you need/want to work on next?

    I'd suggest tap dancing or ballet. Why? they're both very formal performance arts that depend on line and extension of the body, and breaking up a continuous succession of repetitive movements into meaningful segments. Other possibilities are mime (European, esp Eastern Euro, given your body type), and interpretive dance, but the odds of finding a good teacher in these fields in the US are not good.

    At the moment you do COS (circles o'stuff) very well, with a good variety of props. What you don't have is phrasing, representative or evocative movement, and simple story-telling. Training in these things can make an art form of a mechanical (though beautiful) hobby.

    But I just saw the first video.
