We're at the tail end of this International Dance Day (which must be new because I sure don't remember it growing up!) - how did you spend it? Did you take a class? Did you shake your booty in your kitchen while you brewed coffee? Did you read a book about dance? Or a review about a performance? Maybe you bought a ticket to a show!
(Maybe you marked your calendar for June 18 and 19 for LPBC's "Hotel at the End of the Universe" at the Madrid Theatre!)
I'm fortunate to have so many wonderful teachers in my area. On Fridays I love to take class with Helen Nasillski in Eagle Rock at Live Arts LA. So this morning, I put on my best and fanciest leotard and skirt (a lovely hand-me-across gift from a friend) and danced classical ballet!
This afternoon, I spent prepping tomorrow's pointe class variation from La Esmeralda (get your tambourines out!) and sent out my May newsletter. Next up, choreography for this weekend's rehearsals for Hotel.
I'm also very blessed to be able to respond to my dancers' needs when it comes to classes. Over the years, many of my students have asked about a class that wouldn't be too taxing on their bodies. I have thought about it over and over and finally, I'm going to put it out there:
Gentle Ballet
Are you interested? If you wouldn't mind, please fill out this form by May 15th and we can get something started. Why wait any longer?
Happy dancing, everyone!
