Thank you Baton Rouge Panorama dancers and thanks to Molly and Sharon of the Baton Rouge Ballet Theater. It was a great week full of new ideas and breakthroughs - what more can a dancer ask? I am looking forward to returning in October with the glorious dancers of the Martha Graham Dance Company to perform for the people of South Louisiana.
Dancers, please continue to develop your concentration and focus - not to mention pelvic initiated contractions. Write to me here and let me know how its going.

Thank you so much, Blakeley and Janet for entrusting this piece to us. Know that we will continue to pursue the goals that you have set for us with your inspiration, extreme patience, and humor. I feel that you truly have opened a window to new outlooks on dance for many of the dancers, most of whom have had little experience with Graham technique. I hope that we will make you proud in October. As for me, I have thoroughly enjoyed learning and exploring this piece. Its energy is relentless and compells your movement despite exhaustion. That’s a rare find. Thanks again for everything.
Thank you so much, Blakely!
Being a part of this piece has been a wonderful and eye-opening experience. It is a huge inspiration to think about Panorama, its origins, and Martha Graham’s vision for dancers as a whole. So thank you very much for helping all of us realize our potential as dancers- it has been an exhausting and completely rewarding adventure!
