25.01.2022 I had a massive day yesterday. I started teaching a zoom ballet class at 9.30am, followed by a rehearsal fir a Flamenco show I was dancing in (with @casadeflamenco), then I taught in the studio from 12.15 to 3.15, then off to the theatre for the Flamenco theatre rehearsal at 4pm, and two shows at 6pm and 8pm. Exhausting, but awesome.

23.01.2022 Day 1 of the MTL dance company Adelaide lockdown challenge. This is the brainwave of two of my dancers to brighten their days while in the 6 day circuit breaker lockdown in South Australia. The idea is a photo in a different room of the house each day. Day 1 was yesterday, and the room was living room. So here I am in mine. Turns out we won’t be in lockdown after. Midnight tonight, so yay for Adelaide. But I just love how this beautiful idea has brought the dancers together ...during isolation. . . . . #lockdowndancephotochallenge #dancephotochallenge #dancerinlockdown #salockdown #sacircuitbreaker #isophotochallenge #dancersunite #danceconnectsus

23.01.2022 I am trying to articulate my toes. I had a Flamenco performance tonight, and was thinking about how we use our fingers in Flamenco, and trying to do the same with my toes #toedance #footarticulation #flamencodance #dancerfeet #barefoot #barefootdancer

18.01.2022 Posted @withregram @movethroughlife Okay, let's just put a line through 2020 and move on to 2021. It's true that we could continue to experience the disruption of 2020 in the new year, but having a mindset that sets you up for success could make a big difference. Last year I wrote a blog post about mindset for achieving what you wanted in 2020. Things didn't really go to plan, but that's what having the right mindset is all about. Living life, and making it work, even whe...n it doesn't go to plan. Check out the post about mindset and let me know if you think these ideas can help you create the life you want in 2021.

18.01.2022 One of the difficult things in dance as you get older is that liquid eye liner for stage makeup blurs into your wrinkles. Experimenting to make it look right, but not there yet #stagemakeup #dancemakeup #dancersover40 #dancersover30 #dancersover50 #dancersover60 #adultdancer #movethroughlife #movethroughlifedance #mtl #mtldance #adelaidedance

13.01.2022 Day 3 of the MTL lockdown photo challenge - today’s room is bedroom. Here I am with my pug Alfie. He loves to do the puggy dance (which mostly consists of biting my feet). #puggydance #ilovemypug #pugsofinstagram #dancephotochallenge #circuitbreakerphotochallenge #sadance #adelaidedance #pugsofadelaide #dancersofinstagram #movethroughlifedance #mtldance

07.01.2022 Opening night of ‘Windswept’ was last night. While I’ve directed, produced, choreographed for, and danced in dozens of dance shows, this is the first one that is entirely choreographed by me, and I’m so proud of it. I wasn’t meant to dance in it, but work commitments meant one of my dancers couldn’t perform, so I stepped in. I think I made the most mistakes of all the dancers, bit it was lovely to be backstage and onstage with them all #adlfringe #windswept #mtldance #adelaidedancer #adelaidedance #adultdancer #danceteacher

04.01.2022 I’m putting together a short, 5 day version of my online ballet basics course. I’ve been doodling while creating the pdf that accompanies the course. I love drawing dancers . . . . .... #dancerdrawing #balletartist #dancesketch #balletbasics #adultballet #beginnerballet #ballet101 See more
