I Found My Dance in a Bomb Shelter: Anecdotes of Gratitude from A Life in Dance is filled with stories about the people and encounters that have shaped Allen Kaeja as a son, brother, husband, father, and artist. From childhood antics to youthful years of elite wrestling competitions and then the epiphany of following his passion for dance, Allen’s life is a story of discovery and the courage to push boundaries.
