Abstract
Part autobiography, memoir, and autoethnography, this essay sketches a pathway that zig-zags and follows switchbacks as it moves from childhood ballet lessons to a profession in academic teaching and research. The path embraces dance notation, Korean dance, movement analysis, history, iconography, aesthetics, language, and communication as it continues beyond university employment into retirement, revealing the evolution of thought processes and the intertwining of the personal and professional.
