Flying like it’s my job 🦋 Thanks to the real mvp @jorrell_lawyer_jefferson for doing all the heavy lifting! So amazing to perform this duet with you in @swervinandkirven ’s work “DANCE” with music by @annaclynecomposer 🎶 “Dance when you’re broken open. Dance if you’ve torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you’re perfectly free.” - Rumi Purchase your virtual ticket now to stream the performance online anytime this weekend!

These dancers took “okay now get silly” to another level 🤣 Thank you @dcok_official for having me back to teach this week’s Intermediate Intensive! Always a pleasure 🩰 #dance #dancer #danceteacher #danceintensive #dancing #moderndance #stl #stlouis #stlouisdance #contemporarydance #teacher #selfie #sillygoose

Oh hi! 👋🏼 it’s me. I hosted a headshot session at my apartment yesterday, so figured I’d snag a few new headshots for myself before taking everything down. Thanks @calvinwindd for pressing the button while I struggled to make a face I liked 🤣 Swipe to the end to see Mr. Louie 🐾

All the love for my girl little E before she officially moves to another state this weekend 🥹 She was born a month before I moved to STL, and we’ve lived in the same building ever since. From countless Shake Shack dates, nights of homework, movies and popcorn, ice cream treats, combing out knotted curls, playing with little Louie, laughing with @calvinwindd , and loving all things dinosaurs and unicorns, I’m going to miss it ALL! See you soon littlest friend 🫶🏻 In her words… “I’ll always remember you Carly. And we’ll always have Shake Shack” 😭

Congrats on a beautiful wedding, Meg and Zach!!! From the beach, to the berm, to the ballroom, you threw an incredible party. We love you! 🏝️💍🐚 #illinoiswedding #chicagowedding #chicago #zion #wedding #married #beach #beachwedding #bride #mrandmrs #weddingparty #illinoisbeachstatepark

Thank you @dcok_official for having me in to guest teach for your advanced intensive this week!
