Before You Go On

5 min

The preparation is done; these last minutes are for letting go of the checking. Gather the body’s bright charge into one steady point and narrow the whole performance down to its first move. When the cue comes, you do not need to feel perfectly ready—only present enough to begin and let the work speak for itself.

Soft and spacious, with room between every line — lets a busy mind settle in its own time, never pushed.
