It’s a common theme that this particular month should signify fresh starts. Change of the seasons, transitions back to school, you name it. And we did, we did that. We did all of that.

With quite strict protocols surrounding Covid-19, the school I’m affiliated with re-opened. It was a unique experience from a mental health and anxiety perspective. I also tried to start improvising more regularly again, but that’s still not coming easily. I suspect, due to the intense mental health affiliations to Covid-19. I will say that being back in a classroom (as unique an experience as that is right now) with students feels so refreshing.

I also managed to sneak away from campus. The stars aligned for a film shoot with a dancer friend of mine set in the frame of a brand new dream home on a flower farm nestled in between two mountains. Outdoor, socially distant and in masks, he moved and moved and I filmed and filmed and simultaneously we healed a little by making some art.
