1st Business Trip!

Last friday I was informed that I was going to go to Portland to help the big important stores get nice and pretty for big important people to come walk through the store and talk about it.... we call it a walk through, go figure. Anywho after many e-mails, phone calls and feelings  of throwing up I found myself on a plane to Portland Monday morning with a bunch of businessmen and a fashion mag. ( I stood out like a sore thumb) It was just three nights and three days, but they worked us to the bone, twelve hour shifts and little time for sleeping and eating. I am now totally reliant on coffee. I also took my first ride in a town car it was very posh. Overall it was hard work but a good experience. I'll have to talk about Portland more in another blog but for now I should go. 

Dance, sleep , eat, work , dance, work

I've had a couple of people ask me about my new job as a dance teacher, so here is the low down.
I found out through my instructor at the adult dance studio that I was taking Hip Hop and Jazz classes at that Julie Moffett school of Ballet was looking for a Jazz teacher. That night I went home and gave her a call 15 mins. later I was at the studio getting an interview and the next day I started teaching. Wow! It was amazing because I was feeling like I needed to teach again and create and she was just hoping that the right person would to come around. Just like that I am teaching an adult jazz class on wed. nights and on thursday I teach from 4:00-9:30 ages 10 through 18. Needless to say I get my work out every week, but it's been great to be back doing the things I love and the students are great!
