Fire Arts and Flow Arts are performance arts that have captivated audiences throughout history. For me, Fire Arts embodies a fusion of mindfulness, dance, and martial arts. I love to perform and use this medium to express myself.  During undergrad, I actively participated in the Olin Fire Arts Club, as well as attended master classes at the Spinning Arts Foundation's Wildfire. I spent my free time learning tosses, tricks and how to escape tangles. Although this activity seems dangerous, it is only ~kind of~ dangerous. Fire safety is important,  a successful Fire Arts experience requires the artist to wear clothes that are natural fibers (and won't melt onto your skin) and rely on safety spotters.  Through the Olin club, I engaged in numerous performances on Olin/Wellesley campuses and across the broader Boston community.
