Hi to all here. I'm new here, and before replying to anyone on this carrer forum, I thought I'd explain mine and where I am in this adventure!

I have been a performer since th age of 5. I am a master dancer- Ballet, jazz, and trained in Gymnastics, Modern Dance and Funk. My specialty is "Character dance."

I have enjoyed a magical career! My personal life has been hard, but my career has always been there.

I broke my neck a few year ago, and I was lucky, I survived, I can dance, but I will be a "Chronic Pain," Patient for possibly the rest of my life

And so, a month ago, I called my agent and put myself back "on the market." ( I am a choreographer with many, many credits, former model, etc..) I put the work out that I was ready to choreograph again and work.

I had 5 plays, Dance Theater productions, etc..in about three days! I had to go to New Mexico to judge the first leg of that competition, (even though I don't believe in woman competeing in beauty contests,) for a friend whose sister has end stage cancer.

My life is full of drama.

I joined here to network with women who do things i can learn about! I like my relationship over the years with dancers, models, singers, ( I am also a professional vocalist, doing back up for Grammy winning musicians,) and I wanted to expand my world with other women who do other things.

Hopefully I can be of use to others in their careers and pick up some ideas and creativity from others here!

And so I will commence reading!

Thank you for having me!

AnAnomaly,

I am sorry to hear about your injury and pain, but I am so glad that you have recovered enough to dance.

There are a lot of women with different experiences here so we all learn from each other.

Take care
