A Chat with Ashley Bouder

For all my dancers out there I highly recommend this interview with Ashley Bouder. This was a Zoom session I participated in with on Friday. Has I known in advance how much Ashley was going to share, I would have shared the invite with all the dance school and dance teachers that are clients of mine.

Ashley Bouder is a principal dancer with the New York City Ballet and is the founder of the Ashley Bouder Project. She sat down with Pas de Deux on April 17, 2020, to talk about the Coronavirus quarantine and life as a professional dancer. She discusses dealing with injuries and what it’s like to be a principal dancer, and how to conduct yourself at auditions. The video is an hour long.

Over 100 dancers and costumes photographed in day one and more on the way today! The kids look great in their costumes and can’t wait for their recital in a few weeks!

Dance Recital

My youngest was dancing in her first college dance recital. They didn’t allow photographs during the recital but I was taken by how nice the red curtain looked before the show started!

The Light In Your Eyes

I grabbed a quick cell phone photo of my youngest as she was on the way out of the door. Being a dorky photographer I noticed the nice catch lights in her eye and needed a picture. She’s on her way to a tech dance rehearsal.
