“Witness” Video Premiere
What a unique experience we had compiling videos from dancers across the country! It was so neat to see their testimonies shine through their dancing. Watch this remote ensemble unite in their movement and faith as they share their witnesses of our Savior Jesus Christ.
“True joy rests on our willingness to come closer to Christ and witness for ourselves… I pray this witness will become a normal and natural experience for us now—that we will take every opportunity to joyfully testify: Jesus Christ lives!” (Bonnie H. Cordon)

I loved working with the Youth Ensemble this month– it has been a few years since we’ve had this age group and they are so fun! They are eager and willing to try new things but they’re not always sure of themselves. It was especially neat to be in the roll of validating and reassuring their creative choices as we created the first part of their featured dance together. Choreographing with the youth is incredibly rewarding!
Meanwhile the Children’s Ensemble tapped into their imaginations as we explored different emotions with our whole bodies. We started their featured dance which embraces the feelings of surprise and joy that the shepherds felt as the angels brought news that special night. I know it’s early, but I’m already so excited for Christmas because we’re dancing about it this year!
