I, like Kellie, was in awe of the massive scale on which the festival operates – so impressive. The notion of uniting so many dance artists at so many venues doing such beautiful work was totally inspiring. I came away refreshed and eager to get back into my home studio!!! And the young people – wow – they were on fire. Kellie warned me that they were literally bouncing off the walls at any given moment, and this was true. Their energy, talent, sincerity, audaciousness was so compelling and infectious.
