My # 1 critique partner gave the 🤌🏾 seal of approval for "The Night Mia Followed the Drums." During her dance solo she recreated Mia's yanvalou that healed 3 generations.
"Mia ... gracefully flapped her arms like a majestic bird, and side-stepped with her feet, her hips and neck in step."

Just before the rooster sang, early on a Sunday morning, before the dew dried in the sun, Kai woke. He lives in a little house by the sea, tucked into the mountains of Kanlwiz.
