A Different Kind of Heat
Every time I see him in Awkward Pose I have the urge to run out of the room to get my camera. He not only has a text-book-perfect posture but he appears to be barely exerting himself. I haven’t seen him perform live yet but his recorded music exudes that same quiet confidence. On November [...]

Atlanta Dance Blog
Claire Horn, of Several Dancers Core, has started an Atlanta dance blog called Atlanta Dances. Here’s Claire… I’ve started a new dance blog that I’m hoping will be a place for dancers and dance-lovers from the Atlanta area to talk about what they’re doing in their studios/performances/lives and for everyone to better get to know [...]
