Dance artist, academic. It's not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.

I'm thrilled to announce that I'll soon be starting a new position as associate dean for the School of Performing Arts at @desalesuniversity.bsky.social. Thanks to all my friends, colleagues, family, teachers, and students for helping me get here.

Calling my dance artist colleagues: Did you know you can access Moby's huge online catalog of music and use it for your choreography for free? Go to mobygratis.com

Yes, they support it but didn't initiate it, like they did with the April 5th Hands Off! event.

Just to clarify: Hands Off! was initiated by Indivisible. The protest on April 5 is not, though Indivisible encourages those who wish to participate.

Congratulations to everyone who showed up to the @indivisiblebemidji.bsky.social Hands Off! protest today! Over 1,200 people demonstrated against Trump's and Musk's illegal power grab. Well done!

Two major U.S. universities are currently advertising for commercial-dance professors. I can't help but wonder if this the new direction for higher-ed dance profs. #ModernDance

I think about the future of American modern and contemporary dance. Who will the dancers be? Will they be paid? Who will the audience be? Will they buy tickets? Who will the critics be? Will they understand concert dance in all its aesthetics? Or will modern dance end, replaced by competition?

I don't remember any awkwardness! I remember simply joy.
