Archives for June 2018

1. Organize your belongings

When you are planning to make a move, ensure that everything you need during your move is accounted for and well organized. Look for moving supplies from your friends and neighbors, or those being given out for free by retailers, like old newspapers, boxes and bubble wrap, in which to package your stuff. This will save you on cash that you could have spent on buying boxes. Additionally, donate or sell those materials that you will not be taking with you on the move to help you reduce the load. You can also opt to sell your old furniture instead of carrying it with you, and replace it when you get to your new location.

2. Plan your move

Ensure that you have a budget set for the moving process, and aim to stick to it. Also, ensure that you have the address where you are moving to certain so that it will be easy to direct any professional movers on the new location in case you decide to use them. Ensure that you also change your address online on https://www.us-mailing-change-of-address.com/blog/usps-change-of-address-online/ so that your new location can be recognized by the post office so that you can get your mail and any parcels you may decide to send via the post office to your new address. Also, ensure that you do not move during the peak season; during holidays or weekends, since it is usually more expensive to move during these times. Consider moving during a normal working day, within the week.

3. Rent a moving truck

If you are willing to drive yourself across the country to your new location, then hire a moving truck from a reputable company. This will help you save money which you could have otherwise used to pay the driver, and a team to load and unload the truck for you. When you get the moving truck, the only expense will be for renting the truck, insurance and the fuel you will use.

4. Use a trailer

When you are moving a large number of possessions from your current location to a new one, you should consider using a freight trailer. The trailer company will drop off the trailer at your home and give you time to load it, after which the trailer will be picked up and transported to your new location. This moving method is usually very considerably cheaper than hiring a moving company and is cheaper than hiring a moving truck and driving yourself when the distance is extremely long.

5. Do it yourself

The easiest way to move belongings from one location to another is by transporting them yourself. This, however, will not work if you are transporting a large number of possessions. If you are just moving a few things, like a television, a few kitchen items and some books, then you can consider carrying them yourself in your car. This will help you save on money you would have spent on a moving company. You can also ship some materials through the mail if you have an established destination. You can also carry a few suitcases on a plane, or a train, helping you to move your goods cheaply.

The world-renowned dance company pushes boundaries with its innovative choreography and creative blend of multiple disciplines – blurring the lines between the tight constraints of classical ballet and uninhibited motions of contemporary dance. Since its founding in 2012, L.A. Dance Project has toured and given master classes at renowned venues and festivals internationally, including Edinburgh International Festival, Theatre du Chatelet, New York City Center, and The Music Center’s Walt Disney Concert Hall, and has showcased notable pieces in unorthodox spaces.

Founder and Artistic Director Benjamin Millepied is considered to be one of the 21^stcentury’s most notable artists, with mastery in both dance and cinematic arts. He was a soloist and principal dancer for leading ballet company New York City Ballet, and served as Director of Dance at Paris Opera Ballet, which is considered to be one of the top four ballet companies in the world. Millepied is celebrated for his work as a choreographer and dancer in the award-winning film Black Swan. Alongside composer Nicholas Britell, he founded Amoveo, a film production company and Artform, a tech start-up that promotes present-day artists and the arts.

During its Orange County debut, L.A. Dance Project will present a world premiere from Shannon Gillen, commissioned by L.A. Dance Project. Shannon Gillen is one of New York City’s most sought-after choreographers with an established and passionate audience following and who commissions her work at prestigious national and international venues. She is the founder of New York-based dance company VIM VIGOR and was championed by renowned dance critic Deborah Jowitt as ‘vastly gifted’.

The performance will also feature Benjamin Millepied’s works Bach Studies (Part 1) and Orpheus Highway. Inspired by legendary composer Johann Sebastian Bach’s dynamic compositions, Benjamin Millepied incorporates music theory into his choreography to the melodies of Partita for Violin No. 2 in D Minor. The enthralling piece will captivate the audience through the dancers’ polished movements, which interpret musical notes to fluid gestures.

Orpheus Highway debuted in 2017 at Joyce Theater, one of the U.S. dance community’s premier venues. Nine dancers portray the romantic tragedy of Orpheus and Eurydice in front of a somber cinematic backdrop. The dancers onstage alternate simultaneous and asynchronous movements with their onscreen counterparts. The live dance and film experience is performed to Steve Reich’s Triple Quartet, whose interchanging tempos guide the story to its dramatic finale.
