Some photos from 2025! I am particularly proud of my lyra performance for our Halloween showcase to "Peace and Quiet" by Lia Knapp and Songhouse.

I haven't posted in awhile but that doesn't mean I haven't been training or performing! These are from the latest showcase at DID Fit (an AMAZING studio and community!) 💖 I had some help making my hair appear wet for this water-inspired routine, and used just about all the glitter and rhinestones I own! Discovered the benefit of having the audience seated around the stage in a circle: capturing reactions! ✨

This 🔥photo🔥 is hands down the most EPIC shot - thank you thank you thank you for both photos!!!

Performed with AirDance New Mexico at - it was so rewarding to perform alongside some inspiring artists and get to be a part of this South Valley tradition!

Recently I've been having a lot of fun experimenting with how I flow on an apparatus. Over the Halloween weekend I had an especially grand time channeling my inner goblin, and playing with flexing my feet and spreading my toes. I found that experimenting with different shapes and bending the "rules" made flowing a lot more meditative and expressive 🧟‍♀️🥰🤸‍♀️

Blissful Canoe trip with my love and the Malinois ❤

Hair flying everywhere in these screenshots! Feel free to zoom in on my face on the last photo for a good chuckle 😆
