"Desire" A Contemporary Duet

Enjoy!
There's a few transitions I wish I could change.
*People have commented saying "pointe your feet"... When I choreograph, I don't always want a pointed or flexed foot. I really like the natural look (I love me some pointed feet, dont get me wrong) but I also really enjoy the raw look*

I'm the one with the longer and darker gray shorts.

i always find myself coming back to this piece

[sptlightonme]

Well, thank you! :)

[scotty1014]

Wha'ts the ending? why did they break up? don't really understand the storyline. Can someone explain this to me pls?

[sptlightonme]

Well the storyline, simply put, is 2 males wanting to be together. 1 male wants to fully commit to be with the other, while the other male wants to be with the above said male, but is so consumed by what society says about them that he can't be with him. There are times where he wants nothing else to be with the other, but then becomes quite paranoid. The ending is just the breaking of the 2, because there is an unequal balance of desire and being content.... in a sorta confusing statement haha

I liked it. good emotional connection. I'm a male dancer and I really like the way you explored male relationships. way to friggin go!!!

[JustinBandVFC]

This was amazing! I'm not dancer but I know this was glorious. Bravo!

[doubleS07]

Wow, this is gorgeous... I absolutely love the choreography; I must agree I love the non-pointed feet thing going, it lends it a certain natural continuity. And and the storyline is just really sad and delicate; I wish there were more pieces like this around.

Thanks for sharing :)

[longcroft187]

Btw, are you 2 together in real life?

[longcroft187]

This is so beautiful! I've never seen a guy + guy dance before but always wanted to do one... Love the storyline and just how beautiful you 2 dance it! I want to dance with my friend at the Christmas ball at my school but don't think he would go along with it :/ (this just reminded me of that, I'm not just saying it really randomly, lol)

Gorgeous xx
