I can't believe the 2 weeks in Japan are almost done. As much as I am looking forward to going home to NYC, I do love it here and will miss the dance classes, the fun, the food, the people and all the laughter. Hopefully I will be able to come back again. I love all the friends I've made here! 2 classes today, one tomorrow and sunday we fly home...

Japan

I LOVE IT HERE! ALL I DO IS DANCE AND LAUGH!

JAPAN

Hello BDC Tokyo!

Ok so I'm still out of whack as it is really Wednesday at 7:20pm in NYC, but here in Japan it's Thursday at 5:20am...but it's so much fun dancing here!

Miss everyone though! So strange not having a phone....thankfully there's internet :)

JAPAN

OMG! YES!!! I am in Japan! Insane.....

JAPAN!

I AM LEAVING NEW YORK CITY AT 12:45pm TODAY AND FLYING TO JAPAN FOR TWO WEEKS TO DANCE!!! I AM EXCITED AND NERVOUS AND CAN'T WAIT FOR THE ADVENTURE!

I am so grateful for this wonderful opportunity and will update you along the way if I can and will definitely tell you all about when I get home. It's been a LONG HARD road, but if you work hard and never give up, the possibilities are endless! I love you all much much!

‎"Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human."-Tony Robbins

Gemini Feb 9 2011
A problem is about to be solved, Gemini. Something you have been struggling with will soon become much, much easier. Although there may not be an obvious explanation for why this happens, it will - and you should definitely not question it lest you weaken its power. Keep in mind that the universe often reward those who struggle valiantly toward something that is positive, and you have certainly done that recently. Accept your soon-to-be good fortune with grace and with gratitude, and enjoy the results.

LOVE. Work. Gratitude.

It was another wonderful day of Floor Barre and JK's entire jazz class! I am still not 100% but working daily and getting closer and closer one day at a time.

I love being a dancer. And I LOVE being a part of JKing Dance Company! I continue to do my PT daily and am excited for the adventures that lie ahead...

And, I am grateful to those who have made a difference in my life...especially my dance heroes and teachers who inspire me daily...because of them, I am where I am today and with their help, got through the toughest injury of my life!

“There is no greater joy nor greater reward than to make a fundamental difference in someone’s life.” — Sister Mary Rose

"Each night ask yourself, when were you negative when you could have been positive?"

Marianne Williamson

Things to ponder #66

"The healthiest response to life is joy." -Deepak Chopra

Believe in the power of inspiration

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

-Marianne Williamson

I was thinking about life today - with all it's ups and downs - and I thought about the people who have influenced me. Those special people in my life who have stood by me through it all - those people who gave me a chance...those who never gave up on me and those who continue to inspire me on a daily basis. Without them, I wouldn't be where I am today and I definitely wouldn't be who I am today. I am so grateful to those of you out there who teach me and support me and love me. Because of you, I am where I am today!

And for those wondering, yes, I still have some BIG dance news! I am starting a two week adventure on Saturday February 12th! I will give you all the details soon I promise.

LOVE.

Excited!

It was another day of Floor Barre and JK's entire jazz class and NO brace! LiL Knee is a lil sore but pressing ahead! I am SO excited for JKDC rehearsal tomorrow! Like Mariah Carey says, "sometimes life can be kinda like a roller coaster ride....if you don't get on the ride, you won't experience the adventure."

I am still not 100% but I'm working on it and I'm excited for all the adventures ahead!

‎"It's not about winning or losing a competition, it's about beating the doubt from within yourself and knowing at the end of each day you are one step closer to your goals."

-Jonathan Horton

Things to ponder #65

"aha! I am good at what I do. I'm growing all the time. The problem I've decided isn't that I'm trying to prove it to others it's that I'm constantly trying to prove it to myself. There may be other voices that scream stupid ish, but it's that still quiet one, sometimes no louder than a whisper that you need to focus on. It's not easy, but we can do it."

-Halima Henderson

No Limits!

196 days post op and I spent it at Floor Barre followed by JK's class! I can finally grand plie in first and second positions. Most importantly though, today was the first day I went without wearing a knee brace! That first leap across the floor was so scary, but I just turned it over and went for it! And even though I was really nervous, it got easier and even felt good! I am SO excited to be working my way back and I am so excited for the next adventure! February is going to be an awesome month! I can feel it!

"Before u can manifest anything you first have to believe it's possible. Know that ANYTHING is possible. No limits today!" -TDL
