January came and went so quickly I hardly noticed it. Still, somehow it felt like a yawn - like a rest - it was the longest period of time I’ve spent “not working” in years. The work I was doing felt differently motivated. I reset an old piece of choreography, I did an impromptu shoot with a new collaborative group - nothing that felt like someone was weighing on me. The new year also brought with it a renewed commitment to daily improvisation, and a vaccination! As a teacher in New York State, I was lucky enough to become fully vaccinated early on, which will make way for some travel work in the near future.
