What do you love about being an EEE dancer: I love the family at EEE. Everyone is so encouraging and it is beautiful to share a common goal and walk through life together in and outside of the studio. I always leave rehearsals feeling refreshed, inspired, and full of joy! The work is inspiring and meaningful and the family of dancers is unbeatable!
As a dancer, whats something that you're learning/inspiring you right now? Something inspiring me is music! I love finding new music and finding fresh works always inspires me as a mover. I have also been really interested in musical structure, composition, and finding new music I normally wouldn't choose to use in choreography or in class. How does dance reflect or contrast music? How am I influenced by music or is the dance influenced by music choice?
Fun fact about yourself: Sarah loves to travel and has danced overseas in Mexico, Costa Rica, India, and China.
