I can’t believe how FUN it was! I was terrified of group improv before your workshop, and now I can’t wait to play with it more.

I recently sponsored Sharon in a 2-day workshop in Canada, and she was fantastic. Challenged both beginners and the more advanced dancers, taught lots of great new material and subtle nuances to the more familiar stuff … great vibe all weekend. You guys are going to have a great time! Read More
