Laura Brutocao
"I love dance because I can be free. I am the storyteller who informs, entertains and inspires through the combination of music and movement. I love dance because it is a tool to express my experiences, dreams, thoughts, and emotions. I know that dance will never leave me; it will always be my friend."
