A majority of the week was dedicated to planning and making the burlesque rehearsal fans for class. I’m happy with how they came out, although I’ve still got a couple of adjustments to make that will improve them. I may do a tutorial for them. The combination was a lot of fun. Details about class and how to join us here:

It was so very lovely to have live music, and to re-connect in movement with some dancers I’ve known for years. That’s it for this week, have a good one!

I come to you another year older! I celebrated my 49th birthday on the 17th. It was a mostly* delightful day, with a morning snow shoe and an evening enjoying and being inspired by the Taiko Project:
https://taikoproject.org/our-vision" (*The undelightful part was watching an Idaho senate committee hearing to pass legislation to outlaw gender affirming care for minors. If you live in a state with anti trans legislation being proposed, please take the time to voice your displeasure to your elected officials. I want to make weird/cool/beautiful art, not constantly worry about the safety and happiness of people I love.) I finally finished up some jumbo sized insert journals, you can see the video of them here if you follow me at @CreativeMovesCreations on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CqBR75ZgVA2/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= I am happy with how they turned out: I hope to have them listed on the Creations website in another week or two. In burlesque class, we rocked out to Joan Jett’s “Bad Reputation” You can see part of that over on my burlesque instagram, @MsBossyBoobs. For Saturday Extend dance class, there were only two of us and I taught an easygoing hour long modern class. We had fun moving across the floor to some old school music that we used a lot back in the 80s (Jean-Michel Jarre’s “Oxygene Part 2) and then I shared a phrase from my solo show “Weaving Webs” with my fellow dancer. Have a wonderful week! Cross posted on my ko-fi page, you can support me there!
We got a little sloooow in burlesque class this week! (Which as a choreographer I don’t tend to do - I usually like to go FAST, so it was a fun change of pace.)
https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpnzNq6PYRo/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= We’re going to start having an optional extension of the class that will give us an extra half hour to review some combinations from previous classes for anybody who wants to go through them. Details about the class here, we’d love to have you join us! Http://misbehaveburlesque.com I got some journals/inserts made for the new largest size of Insert Journal (8.5 x 5.5 inches) I couldn’t find lined paper that would work for these so, uh, I MADE SOME! I carved a block of lines, stamped it out, and then ran it through the printer. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cpkz1mHpQ0P/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y

The past week:
My main focus was burlesque class, and it got off to a fun start! A little peek of the combo: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpYRVsGsz0S/?igshid=MjkzY2Y1YTY= We run through May, so if you’re in Pocatello, swing by Discovery Dance at 7:30pm and join us. Details: http://misbehaveburlesque.com I made the decision to apply for the Elgin Fringe Festival. It’s one of my favorites, and they have a new short show option that lets you bring a 15-20 minute piece, and that seemed an excellent option for dipping my toes back in the Fringe waters. The show is tentatively titled “Percolate,” and we’ll see what bubbles up. (*ducks tomatoes*) I won’t know if it gets into the festival until May, but this is a show that’s been, uh…brewing (*ducks even more tomatoes*) for a while, so I will probably start work on it no matter what. It was also the start of March- my birthday month! :) So I made a little stamp to use on my planner. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpQMeWzppxK/?igshid=MjkzY2Y1YTY That’s it for now - have a wonderful week, y’all!
