When is the right time for an encounter? It is not always a good time, but one must always keep their attention alert. I find it very difficult to identify that; I delay it and lose the moment by trying

Covered by the illusory veil of sanity, it has happened to me often that I am certain that what my mind thinks is reality, that what my brain registers is the truth, and yet there are countless times when

I recently came across these dance photos, which I loved, and which was one of the first dance works that I liked so much that I had to watch it again to experience what had happened. Hace poco me encontré

The capacity to observe art is a capacity that not everyone has. In fact, many people do not understand artistic expression, and the way to educate this vision is much more complicated than it seems. Depending

Master Elio welcomed me very warmly into his class. His training is in modern dance and theater, which I like because I enjoy exploring ways of moving that make me conscious of my movement through a stylized

The first time I saw Abelardo was in a piece he staged about the cancer he survived. Abelardo is now a performer who is elderly, which means he doesn't have the same ability to move that he possessed at

Forms speak; awaken your feelings and listen to the shapes. We walk through fictitious lines that place us in space, ignoring our entire surroundings because of the concrete line of the path we have traced

The body, that structure we inhabit, is usually perceived as something fixed, defined by tangible limits. But what happens when we explore the possibility of its visual transformation? Photography offers

Soon will be the presentation of "The Bruces," a dance-performance piece where I'll be participating by providing the audio-visuals. I'm really excited about it because I genuinely like the work,

These are photographs of my dance teachers during a rehearsal of a duet they’re performing. Both are incredible dancers, deeply experienced. Watching them move is beautiful because their movement no longer

I like coming to write every night. It’s something that does me good, that has helped me organize many of the ideas I carry but don’t express easily— or don’t have the chance to talk about properly. And

I love parties. I love seeing people have fun—dancing, enjoying themselves, artists on stage, live music, the energy that’s shared and felt. It’s something I truly enjoy. I always dreamed of being a musician,
