“From beginning to end, it’s like a journey that you’re transported to another world, and it’s just a heavenly realm of beauty and artistry and just so, so inspiring.”

“I guess it would be the artistry and the spirituality combined that was so impressive—just beautiful. A message of truth and beauty, goodness, kindness, humanity—all of these good attributes through the dance.”
