A little SummerArts Summit throwback 💛

Art projects, sunshine, garden time, and a whole bunch of creativity. We loved watching this crew make our Summit studio—and the garden outside of it—their own this summer.

Missing these passionate campers already! 🌿☀️

✨ The goal isn't just to remember the combination.
The goal is to know it so well that you can stop thinking about what comes next and start thinking about how you move.

Once choreography is confidently memorized, your mind is free to focus on what really brings movement to life: musicality, artistry, intention, and technique. That's when dancers can move bigger, take creative risks, and truly live in the moment.

In this week's Teaching Tip, School of Nimbus Co-Director Marie Zvosec shares one simple strategy that's helped countless dancers: always remember the very first step. Having a strong starting point can anchor the entire combination and set the tone for everything that follows.

💬 Dancers: What's your favorite trick for memorizing choreography? Share your best tip in the comments!
