Plate Lunch Dance started as a playful little challenge - a 10-second dance every day for a year.

No repeat outfits. No repeat locations. Just me, moving wherever I was, in whatever I was wearing, finding joy in that moment.

What began as a daily practice has turned into something much bigger: a reminder that dance can happen anywhere, everywhere, every day.

The name comes from where I grew up—Hawai'i—where a plate lunch is this beautiful, nourishing mix of foods from different cultures, all side by side on one plate. That’s how I see dance, too. Different styles, different influences, different moods…they all belong together. You get to choose what you need that day.

For me, dance is daily nourishment. It’s how I process the world, connect with others, and stay grounded in creativity. Whether I’m choreographing, teaching, or improvising, my goal is always the same: to create space where people feel free to move, explore, and just be.
