Opening night! ⭐️ ・・・ #Repost @tracy_paige ・・・ opening night✨ i’ve been think a lot how fleeting an art form dance is. every moment onstage is so quickly washed away by the next one. this forces you to stay in each present moment, my favorite kind of meditation. summed up perfectly in this quote: • “You have to love dancing to stick to it. It gives you nothing back, no manuscripts to store away, no paintings to show on walls and maybe hang in museums, no poems to be printed and sold, nothing but that single fleeting moment when you feel alive.” Merce Cunningham💕 • 📸: @bwpdancephotos 👗: @allihalla
