Artistic Awakening & Freedom
I studied dance as a child, but I did not fully understand the depth of dance, the artistry, and the creative expression of dance until I met Vanessa. She is one of the biggest influences in my life as a dancer, artist, teacher, performer, choreographer, and musician.
Dancing with Vanessa, I feel lighter, stronger, more in my truth and my power, and like anything is possible. She brought a sense of freedom to my movement and helped me experience parts of myself I had not fully accessed before. I carry her inspiration with me when I teach, perform, choreograph, and make music.
Her message is to appreciate life and embody it.
