How It Feels to Fly(90)

Also in the research realm, thanks to Gail Nall, who helped me fill in figure-skating details, and Diana Gallagher, who did the same for gymnastics. I really appreciate your willingness to answer every question I emailed your way. In the category of life-as-research, thanks to my “dance family”—the people I’ve studied under, trained alongside, and performed with over the years. May we never stop moving.

Thanks, again and again, to my wonderful family: Mom and Dad; Ben, Kate, Turner, Benton, and Miles; Mary-Owen (who read so many early drafts of this book!); Sheila and Jack; and Niki, Ed, Max, and Henry. I cherish your love and support.

To my husband, Justin: I’m so lucky to have you by my side. Thank you for everything.
