My Inspiration for Dancing

My Inspiration is my sister Sarah. She is the most beautiful Dancer I have ever seen!! Growing up she had a love and a passion for dance that shined through in all her performances. Sarah, when on stage (and off too), has a way of drawing attention to her through her beauty and zest for life.  (If you look up to the picture at the top of the blog – the one on the left is Sarah, the one on the right is me).

Both Sarah and I went to the Bracebridge School of Ballet where we took Jazz, Modern, Ballet and Point.  Sarah spent a few summers away at various Dance Schools – where one could catch Sarah dancing even when there was not any music on.

Little does she know what an inspiration she has been and is to me. Her ability to move ever so gracefully was my motivation to continue to be the best I could/can be.  Although, at times, her abilities were discouraging as she was always ‘the dancer’ in the family but little did I know I had a dancer in me as well and that I had rhythm too!

Sarah is my inspiration in other areas of life as well. She has taught me how to be strong, stand up for myself and be kind to others, as she does with such grace.

She recently gave birth to the most Beautiful Boy Finn – at home – no medication, just pure inner strength. Finn has also become my inspiration as he moves so organically, and naturally using the Principles of Nia.
