Insecurities, fear, confusion and pessimism are caused by the life experiences a person has in a society. Her environment seems threatening and dark.

With numb bodies and uncertain looks, we discovered new parts of ourselves, we looked for new ways to create. By exchanging conventional, expected bodily moments, recognizing and breaking the conveniences of bodies, placing dancers in more difficult stories that did not belong to them,
No emotions
Like a novel’s first paragraph, facial expressions always give clues about a performance. A dancers face is without a doubt the most powerful tool to convey personality, to add nuance to a role and develop a deeper connection with the audience.
