S.I.T. Day 10: Dreams, Inspiration, Connection, & Self-Expression

Personally, I want more social proximity and hugs, damnit! I want more intimate gatherings in cozy spaces with good conversations. More time in dimly lit lounges with a live DJ so I can “leave it on the dance floor” and exit a hot, sweaty mess. I want more Afro-Caribbean dance classes to summon the ancestors with live drummers. To climb and spin and wind my hips in pole dance classes that transport me back to my days as an aerial artist. And then I wanna sit in a crowded Brooklyn coffee shop; banging out ideas on my laptop while the energy of other people’s creativity pulses around me. I want more opportunities to travel to Spanish-speaking countries to explore, meet new people, and continue improving my Spanish-speaking abilities. I miss all these strong energy vortexes whipped up by dreams, inspiration, connection, and self-expression.

Professionally, I want more time inside of a fully-equipped Pilates studio; to teach and to practice. I want more of the same type of students I already have; committed, curious, and fun. And I also want to continue developing my online Pilates platform to reach a broader audience and to join other colleagues in making Pilates more accessible and affordable. Lastly, I want more speaking, writing and teaching opportunities around the globe that challenge my skills, creativity and levels of vulnerability.

Above all, I want more conjuring, nurturing, and manifesting my dreams. I refuse to let a global pandemic stifle my desires for connection, communication, creative exchange, and growth; even if I have reimagine ways of achieving them.
