CURRENT MISSION

to listen and to create.

ABOUT ME

I have a face full of freckles.
I like discussing how the mind and body are connected.
I'm an introvert who loves people.
I'm a science nerd who has a deep passion for the arts.
Eating is a spiritual experience for me.
Yoga keeps me balanced and grounded.
I like to play.

I dance because it feeds me. From the soles of my feet to the tips of my fingers, moving helps me tap into my most authentic and powerful self. When I become uninspired, discouraged, or fearful, dance never fails to remind me of the artist that exists in my soul. That this artist inside of me thirsts after a type of creation that co-exists with my community, an evolution that is headed towards goodness, and ultimately a greater connection to myself and the world around me.

PHILOSOPHY

Well first of all, life is painfully beautiful. I thirst after it - crave to know all of it. Even the dark, heavy stuff.

I also believe that coincidences are laws that have yet to be discovered.

"Let the beauty you love be what you do." - Rumi

"Instead of resisting to changes, surrender. Let life be with you, not against you." -Shams Tabrizi

"Love yourself down to the bone, down to the roof of your mouth. Leave no stone unturned, no cell unwanted. Love down to the blood no matter how fast it boils." -Meggie Royer

I will not die an unlived life.
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid,
more accessible,
to loosen my heart
until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance;
to live so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom
and that which came to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit.
fully alive - dawna markova
