No Boundaries, Only Limits | Ciena Adams | TEDxStGeorge

Description: One of the hardest things a young creative has to do on their own is not only challenge themselves, but challenge the boundaries they want to set for themselves. It is not common for high school students to be aware of that. Ciena encourages student to dance past their social cage. #youngartist #dance #highschool #UtahArtsAcademy #TEDxStGeorge #TEDx #TEDxSpeaker #choreographer Ciena Adams is an energetic performing arts student dedicated to making her extensive imagination come to life. With a long history of dance classes, singing lessons, comedic acting, and made-up performances her living room, Ciena has spent her whole life creating. Growing up, Ciena understood she was not genetically gifted for dancing. A lack of flexibility and thin limbs lead both people around her, and sometimes Ciena herself, to believe that dancing was not right for her. Choreography was an outlet for her to create the dances she wanted regardless of if she could execute the moves perfectly herself. It wasn't Ciena's technique that pushed her this far. Ciena's stubborn work ethic and relentless drive is what brings her to TEDx today. We can't wait to see what she does next. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Close description
