Find Flow

"The first time I attended a freestyle hip hop battle, I felt incredibly alive. It is a very short experience, maybe two or three minutes, where one dancer goes, then another. It is all improvisation. You do not know what music will play. You do not know the DJ. You just know the jury and your opponent. It is a raw, spontaneous moment, which to me feels like life itself, being present and alive. That feeling made me realize that dance helps me find myself. The sensation is hard to explain, but it is like finding a moment that makes everything worthwhile. You literally feel the moment. You are alive, fully present, and grateful."
