Floating Potato or Swimming Potato? 🥔🌊 swipe ➡️ ⠀ From pool to wild waters. ⠀ I’m transitioning from the controlled world of the pool into oceans, springs, lagoons, and rivers. But I don’t want to just dance underwater anymore — I want my movement to carry knowledge. ⠀ Each winter, at discovercrystalriver manatees gather in the warm 72° spring waters of Crystal River, Florida to survive the cold Gulf temperatures. ⠀ Before creating anything, I studied their behavior — how they conserve energy, how sensitive they are to cold stress, how easily they can be disturbed, how gentle and curious they truly are. ⠀ Moving beside them required stillness. Respect. Awareness. ⠀ This wasn’t just content. This was my first transformation with the best TEAM discovercrystalriver ⠀ Still floating potatoes though. 🥔💛 ⠀ #UnderwaterDancer #manatee #discovercr #manatees #floridamanatee
