I love how viscerally your description made me feel like I was on stage myself!

The tension between the freedom to express (pausing for the audience's response) and the ever-present constraint to the beat (having to return to it) seems really fruitful.

Well then the stage needs you! Maybe it's ‘time’ 🙃 But no, thank you for reading and more so, thank you for appreciating!

Virtuous cycle, no? The only thing vicious is the speed and precision of our feet and hands. 💃🕺

Hahaha sometimes when you're not on beat, it feels pretty vicious 😂

This was so beautiful, Eshna! As someone who plays an instrument I hear the beat of music in everything too, but you brought it to life so gorgeously! Thank you for sharing! I’m so excited to watch you perform, with this awareness of the circle of 4 beats at the back of my mind!
