variety of things, I always, it's like, okay, what's going to be the thing that moves this one? So how did you you get to this point?

So Marlena Locklear, who's been coming to Sioux Falls to create for about eight, no, over 15 years with Ballerina Dance Studio, comes and creates for Ballerina sometimes, but she also creates for Lear Dance Theater Company.

She's done a duet on Lisa and I. She's done some pieces in the past, just high intensity, really cool choreography.

So she came this year to create for us and named her piece Tremors.

Well, then we started looking at the pieces and how they were developing.

And we looked at a lot of pieces and thought this is so like it almost fits with the theme of what's happening.

There's pieces of like regrowth in your life and changing and also, you know, trauma and all the all the emotions.

And so typically how many make it then and become actually part of the Lyra Dance Company theater?

I decided to build

a black box theater inside our new dance studio.

So it can be doubled as a dance studio, but then it can turn into a theater.

What the plan was for me is so that we could do more intimate shows because we've created the studio for years into like little showings, but it was so much set up.

I mean, Lisa and I did shows where we were taping, you know, black, you know, garbage bags to the windows.

And then the windows would break because they'd get too hot.

And it was just like, oh, my gosh, I don't know if this is actually saving me money by setting up a theater inside of my studio.

When another choreographer says, do this, how does that show up in your body?
