Cool, Slightly Terrifying News

przedI know, I disappear for ages, and then I post a ton in two days. But I got some cool news yesterday.
My musical form has been picked for the Black Belt Spectacular!
What that means in practical terms is I get to perform the form I choreographed in front of about 300 people.
Cool! And more than a little terrifying. And also, a huge honour. There were 24 of us doing black belts this year, from 14 first degrees to 3 fourth degrees, and there were about 10 of us picked to perform at the Spectacular. Really, they could have picked any of us; everyone's forms were great.
I think I got through by picking music that wasn't contemporary pop (I used the theme song from Once Upon a Time in China) and having a cool costume (black silk jacket with gold Chinese characters, flippy little black skirt and black leggings with gold laces up the side).
