The piece left me with the space to question my patterns, friendships, and goals, while examining our endless desire to escape reality.  “The Only Constant” clearly confirmed that contemporary dance thrives in Los Angeles.   -Matthew Shaffer, LA Dance Chronicle

Carson’s work is profoundly moving, a testament to the human spirit. In the city of Los Angeles, where vulnerability is often pushed aside in favour of perfection, "The Only Constant" brings humanity center stage. -Gillian Ebersole, Bachtrack.com

Genevieve Carson, the opera’s choreographer and director of the Los Angeles Contemporary Dance Company, is from Juneau and said it’s pretty special to be working and collaborating in her hometown.

My dream day would continue at The Sweat Spot where I'd teach my class called Give & Take. The Sweat Spot is owned by Ryan Heffington—it's my favorite studio to teach at in L.A. Give & Take is a contemporary class that helps dancers connect with their bodies and the space they're in.
