EP 002: Exercise Your Artistic Muscle with Jacqueline Green
There’s nothing better than when you’re in the flow and flexing your artistic muscles. We all have artistic muscles, you just have to discover what yours are. In this conversation, I was joined by a longtime friend of mine that I’ve known since high school, Jacqueline Green. Jacqueline is a principal dancer for Alvin Ailey and has been in love with the art of dance since she was younger. We chatted about taking the first step of being courageous and how she overcame all odds to become a professional dancer. She shares how she uses dance for release, the importance of self-love and why you need to listen to your body.
What you’ll find in this episode:
- How she became a principal dancer for Alvin Ailey
- What made it possible for her to show up and step forward
- What happens when you fall in love with your passion
- How she uses dance as a release
- How Jacqueline overcame all of the odds of being a professional dancer
- Why you should love on yourself for being different
- Why you need to slow down and listen to your body
About Jacqueline:
Jacqueline began her dance training at the age of 13 at the prestigious Baltimore School for the Arts. She is a 2011 cum laude graduate of the Ailey/Fordham BFA Program under the direction of Denise Jefferson. During that time she also received training at the Pennsylvania Regional Ballet, the Chautauqua Institution for Dance, and Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival. In her career she has performed works by a wide range of choreographers, including Wayne McGregor, Jiří Kylián, Elisa Monte, Ronald K. Brown, and Kyle Abraham. In 2016 she performed as a guest artist with The Royal Ballet.
