I don’t post a lot of family photos, but this one feels important.
As my daughter begins her own ballet training journey, I find myself reflecting on mine.
To my mom, who came to this country in the late ’80s and paved the way for us to join her. Who then took me to Dance Theatre of Harlem School and helped me begin a journey in dance that would shape so much of my life.
From Trinidad & Tobago 🇹🇹 to Brooklyn, NYC 🗽 and now Detroit, Michigan! Here I am, finding paths for my own daughter.
It’s wild to think about how far one mama’s courage can travel through generations.
I couldn’t be more in awe of, or more grateful for, my own mama. 💖💙
