"Thanks so much for
facilitating the
holiday party and
the earrings that I
received. You are
always very
thoughtful. It was
a fun night and an
opportunity to get
to know some of the
other girls better.
Also - a huge thanks
for the atmosphere
and positive energy
that you always
create for us to be
part of and take
forward with us. I
hope that you and
yours have a
wonderful holiday."
Merry Christmas,
Dawn
"I think
you’re a wonderful teacher. And what I love
about it most is that while we’re all
attempting to perfect our dances and styles,
you aren’t a drill sergeant. We can learn at
our own pace and you don’t get upset or all
bent out of shape if something isn’t
“perfect.” I’ve read in my magazines
experiences of other dancers who had
instructors that were just awful. If every
drop wasn’t precise, if every camel
lumbering across the desert isn’t perfectly
undulated, if a sword dips just the
slightest, that dancer is berated in front
of her classmates. I would drop a class like
that and never come back! It would be nice
if dancing was my profession and I could
practice hours a day and thus perfect
techniques, etc. From articles I’ve read,
most local troupes like ours are dancing for
the joy of it and love of dancing. You’re
teaching these classes obviously because you
love the dance and you want us to love it as
much as you do!"

"I love the class.
I initially signed
up for four classes,
but I plan on
signing up for more
when my four weeks
are up. Working in
education I have to
say that you are a
very good teacher.
You explain things
in their simplest
form. Since most of
us are probably
brain dead by that
time of the day that
is much
appreciated!"
