S1E10: Jasmine raphael

Jasmine Raphael is a hip hop dancer, choreographer and dance educator in Los Angeles. She’s been on stage with some of the biggest stars out there… Ariana Grande… Nikki Minaj… and she has a deep philosophy on what dance is, what it can be and why we all can benefit from learning to move our bodies without abandon.

This interview has me thinking deeply about how I use my body. I’ve become tuned into it. I’m hearing music more sharply and asking myself, “How do I want to move to this music?” And I’m allowing myself to move, freely.

Jasmine would call this “freestyle.”

I’m free-styling in the kitchen. I’m free-styling while I brush my teeth.

I’m moving. A lot. And I love it.
