Holiday classes at BDC, Gypsy of the Year, & more!
Happy Holidays Everyone,
I hope you're not too stressed. I wanted to let you know a
few things that are coming up.
Tomorrow, Thursday is our holiday class at BDC. There's
usually chocolate involved and some silly Christmas combo
so get out your tap shoes, Francis and head on over.
Sunday the 23rd, Dana Moore will be teaching my theatre
dance class. Remember, she's the epitome of Fosse and one
of the nicest women I know. I'll be back the following
Sunday.
Subbing at Steps!
I'm subbing 8 classes at Steps in the next couple of weeks.
Here's the schedule:
Friday, Dec. 28: 7:45 Beg. Tap
Monday, Dec. 31: 11:30 Beg. Tap
1:00 Basic Tap
Wednesday, Jan 2: 11:30 Beg. Tap
1:00 Basic Tap
Friday, Jan. 4: 7:45 Beg. Tap
Monday, Jan. 7 11:30 Beg. Tap

It's the ONLY theatre dance class on Saturdays so I hope to
see you there.
I guess that's all the news that's fit to print. If I
don't see you before the holiday please have a safe and
happy one.

2007 Gypsy of the Year
At the 2007 Gypsy of the Year awards original cast members
of "West Side Story" joined current Broadway gypsies in an
amazing and historical opening number celebrating the 50th
anniversary of the show. If you were there, here it is
again, with a bonus rehearsal video. (almost better than
the real thing). If you weren't there, please enjoy.
Video does not do it justice--but it's still phenomenal.

Words from the Wise seeking new stories!
Saving our Heritage, One Story at a Time!
Words from the Wise is in the process of a nationwide
search to collect stories from the 50+ generations and
publish them in a book. We want to chronicle the wisdom of
the most experienced people. Whether it's your story or the
story of your parents or grandparents, we want to hear it!
Read about the project: http://www.wordsfromthewise.net/
We're looking for stories in the areas of:
Legacy
Inspiration
Personal Achievement
Discovery and Inventions
Generations of Globalization
World Events
We expect many of the stories will make us feel good,
however, we are not simply looking for 'feel good' stories.
We want to know what really happened for you, for your
family, or for your community. Your contributions will shed
light on the human condition and weave a tapestry of a
generation through personal stories. We anticipate your
stories will create a sense of connection to humanity,
inspiration for life, gratitude for our current living
conditions, and hope that it's never too late to make a
difference.
