Andrea Torres gives yet another elegant performance, at the second annual Taste of the Arts Street Festival (produced by Tim Bostock, the fellah at the end of the video).
At 0:51 she performs a move which makes me cringe. If I tried it, my old body would groan like twisted, wet leather. Then you'd hear a sudden pop as my wimpy muscles failed to keep my hip joint together. There'd be a lot of crying for momma.
Here's a picture I took of a little boy enthralled with Andrea:

There were many other Samadhi performers that night, though I missed the earlier performances. I'll post the footage I do have, as soon as possible, but I took most of it from a bad location. It'll take me a while to edit it into something half decent.
On a technical note:
I'm pretty happy with the tweaking I did to highlight the sheen of Andrea's outfit. I think it accentuates the twisting in her routine.
I'm not happy with what seems to be red bleeding into the white areas of her skin. It's actually in my H.264 source, but smoothly distributed. I'm guessing YouTube's conversion to Flash "bunched up" the red tint.
