"Memory", 2024
A former ballet dancer finds pointe shoes hanging from a tree in the forest.
She pauses, gently takes them down and tries them on.
She pauses, gently takes them down and tries them on.
For a moment, everything comes back,
memories of a time when she danced happily, smiling, light, and familiar in her movement. But it is only a moment.
memories of a time when she danced happily, smiling, light, and familiar in her movement. But it is only a moment.
She realizes her movement has changed. Her body now speaks a different language. She no longer needs the pointe shoes,
because her dance has grown into something else -
freer, more aware, truly her own.

"Be as you are: here", 2014
This was my first video after returning to dance. It’s been a few years since then, so the style is simple and minimal.
This is my original song, created in 2014 for a school project.
