Guest Blog: Sevin Ceviker on FJK China Dance Tour - Farewell Blog

After 61 days and visiting 31 shows/cities, FJK Dance is back in New York City! Our return home brought tears to my eyes and gratitude in my heart. In a tour that seemed so long, with so many weeks traveling and performing, looking back it seems as if the tour didn't last long enough! As an artist looking for growth, it's been the experience of a lifetime. I couldn't ask for more.

Sincere thanks to our leader Fadi J. Khoury, FJK's Artistic Director, for all his love, passion and hard work. Many nights he didn't sleep, working through to make sure our performance was perfect is style, elegance, and passion. He, along with all of the FJK artists - Lucia Jackson, Danny Gonzales, Elisa Toro Franky, Serena Giannini, Silken Kelly, Nick Perogrino, Dante Adela, Josep Monreal Vidal and our "behind the scenes team" - the tour was nothing less than glorious. We also thank Jodi Kaplan and Associates/Booking Dance for believing in us, and arranging our China tour with the Poly Theater team.

Now that we are home, we feel ready to gear up to meet our New York audience on Tuesday, June 13 for our performance at the Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College. After experiencing such high on tour, I cannot wait to dance for our audience here at home. I have so much gratitude for all...
