If only I knew it was the right way – Zoë Greten – Shooting Stars | Dutch National Ballet

The 19-year-old Zoë Greten started dancing when she was only 2 years old. Now, 17 years later, she is studying at the National Ballet Academy, where she is also discovering her choreographic talent. When she was given the opportunity to apply for the Choreographic Academy of Dutch National Ballet, she faced a difficult choice: how would this affect her future career in the world of dance? It is hard to give a definitive answer to this question as of now, but choreographing a piece for the Junior Company was something she could simply not refuse.

Set to compositions by Jóhann Jóhannsson and David Buckley, Zoë examines the difficulty of choice. How can others influence you when making decisions? How can a lack of self-confidence affect your decisions? And how can one decision determine the rest of your life? Zoë explores these questions with a creative piece of choreography, performed by five dancers of the Junior Company, who illustrate how central the role of choice is in their daily lives.
