Description: For our loved ones. This is less of a made up idea or a thought up story... Rather, everything in the video is a reality for us. What you see is a glimpse into our lives as our work requires us to leave often. Although it's portrayed in a cinematic way, this dance is something that is very close to my heart. As an international teacher, I get to see the world really frequently, and as AMAZING as it is to see what humanity has to offer around the globe, that also means leaving people that I love for long periods of time. My family, my friends, my dogs... and her. Now that I think about it, airports have pretty much become my second home haha. I have all these phenomenal experiences in other countries, but what's the experience when the person you love the most isn't present too? How do you share and put into words a moment so impactful, when they're not right there... standing next to you? It's in these moments I find myself saying, "I wish you were here". In short, I know these gentlemen go through the same predicaments I do. We're all in the same line of work, and have become good friends within the past years. Not to mention I'm incredibly inspired by each of them, and I've handpicked them for these very reasons. It just so happens that they're some of the most elite dancers on the planet, haha! (IMO). So from "us" to our loved ones, this dance is for You.
