Director Statement
Our group of dancers gathered one afternoon to utilize the studio space during an Authentic Relating Leadership Retreat weekend held by Rick Smith in November 2022. Collectively we shot this together on an Iphone. I held onto this project, thinking I had lost the footage. Samson is a student of mine, attending Momentum Workshop. Helen is a theatre and comedy queen, and attended my Bali Eco Stay Retreat Jam. Lisa went on to organize Contact Jams in Uluwatu. We found our flow together, with the tidal sounds that inspired us.
