Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day! We invite you to celebrate this holiday with an article by Blythe Stephens @ablythecoach , WHDT Alumni and now Dance Educator and Coach, with her most recent podcast/blog guest, Matthew Donnell. Here is a short message from Blynthe below. Hello beautiful. Happy (Rev. Dr.) Martin Luther King Jr. Day! For me, it is always good to be reminded of him and the powerful, peaceful methods he taught as a man of faith with a vision of justice. A ...major U.S. holiday, today is a day of service for many Americans. Service is also something my most recent podcast/blog guest Matthew Donnell knows something about, having raised money for worthy causes both while publishing his book and clowning show, as well as working for fair treatment of dancers while helping unionize Kansas City Ballet. Speaking of his professional ballet career, Donnell summarized, ‘I love Kansas City Ballet and am so proud of some of the things that they have done Two things in my career that I will loudly proclaim that I am proud of and one is that fall [which we also laugh about on the podcast], and the other one is the successful unionization of Kansas City Ballet and making the call to get that ball rolling because ... we ensured that they would have a great contract for the history of that company and that helped those dancers start learning to have a voice for themselves.’ I’m so excited to introduce you to my good friend, fellow dance educator and UNCSA alumnus as we talk about the highs and lows of being a multi-passionate jack-of-all-trades, his highlights as a professional ballet dancer, how to fall down and get back up again, the importance of révérence, character dance, and technique variety in ballet training, developing character in dancers and human beings, serving our communities, helping dancers find their voice, and assert that all people are valuable!
