As a choreographer, I love creating a world for my dancers, my audience, and myself and being immersed in it for a short period of time. I am often inspired to “solve problems” within my choreography that I do not have the full power to control elsewhere. Sometimes I like to touch base on personal emotional turmoil within relationships and see how I can find a resolution by the end of my choreographic work. Other times I go broader into worldwide issues or existential questions and shed light on ways we can come to peace or see hope for a brighter future. Regardless of the issue, I find myself striving to create and be a part of positive community building. |

A special contemporary master class was held during Sunday's open house, instructed by Lindsey Miller, a professional dancer, choreographer, model and dance/fitness instructor based in New York. She started dancing at MCDA as a youth and went on to graduate with honors at Illinois State University with a degree in dance performance. |
