"From the top! 5,6,7,8!" I shout that phrase nearly 500 times a week. That's what happens when you teach around 20 dance classes each week. Between pre-school classes, regular classes, competitive teams, working the office and learning the art of "teaching" from some rad mentors, my dance life is busy, beautiful, tough, and gratifying. Welcome to the daily dissertation of anecdotes and observations of a dance instructor. My job allows me to meet all kinds of people, and I'm lucky to say that I teach some of the most beautiful, talented, unique students in the world. Our studio is a place that values the art of dance, quality education, quality staff, family life, and performance.
The funniest, sweetest, and most uncanny things happen in the daily workings of a dance studio - this leg warmer diva is here to divulge and entertain. Note that accounts of students employ the use of pseudonyms to protect their identities, however all of what is told on this blog comes from everyday life as a teacher.
