About Mary
Mary has a love for the medium of dance that transcends its visual beauty. She sees dance as a metaphor for the movement that we use to choregraph daily life. It is her hope that the picture she presents in prayer-in-motion might clarify how we should move through life with prayer not only on our lips but through our actions.
