Cuteness

I teach kids classes every Wednesday which is a nice change of pace in the middle of the week. They allow me the opportunity to really be in the moment- so to speak. It can be exhausting though. I really admire people who are with kids ALL day long. That takes stamina!
They ARE pretty cute though and that really helps when they get frustrating. Some of them look like little baby dolls- oh god!

Right now they are ecstatic because they are performing this Sunday. My 5 year olds are dancing to the Sccoby Doo song by Shaggy and wearing Scooby Doo costumes. Talk about freakin cute!

My 6-7 year olds are dancing to Lose Control by Missy and wearing hippie costumes and my 8-9 year olds are wearing gangster suits and dancing to Pump it Up by Joe Budden.

Come by if you can. It is at the Marin Civic Center in San Rafael . Little kids show is 4:30 and older kids show is at 7:30

I Am Back!

Thanks for your patience, I am now back to my regular blogging ritual. I had a "unplugged' phase during the holidays when I spent minimal time on my computer. Wonderful!
Batteries are now re-charged and I am now ready to keep you updated with SoulForce, classes, SF Hip Hop DanceFest and LIFE!

Lets begin with the music I have been using-- last week "How Low" by Ludacris and this week "Code Red" by Omarion

I am fervently working on getting the dates locked down for my performance workshop. As soon as I get them solid, I will post them here. The performances (Mission in the Mix) will be the last 2 weekends of June!

Stay Posted!

Hi Micaya,
My name is Lily and I am contacting you on behalf of Dr. Sonia Bell, a sports medicine physician that would like to volunteer her medical services for the Hip Hop Dance Fest in November.

Dr. Bell has an extensive and diverse sports background including work as a physician for the USA Track and Field team. She is also a former dancer for the San Francisco Ballet. Dr. Bell has attended your performances before and you two had spoken about her assistance for a future performance.

Attached is Dr. Bell's resume so you can learn a little more about her.
Please contact me at avantilily@aol.com

Thank you,

Lily
