Joy of Motion's Doug Yeuell Video Interview

I recently conducted a video interview with Doug Yeuell who is the artistic and executive director of Washington-DC-based Joy of Motion Dance Center.

And Doug happens to be my first jazz instructor as you can tell from the opening of this video interview.

During the interview, we discussed a wide-range of topics:

- Joy of Motion's four studios in DC area and their classes and performance offerings with a strong emphasis on adult students.

- Doug Yeuell's background with Joy of Motion, which goes back to 1982 when he first started teaching there.

- Doug's passion for teaching dance to adults.

- Why guys tend not to take modern/jazz/ballet as opposed to social dance classes.

- The "Helen" I refer to is Helen Hayes, who's my modern dance teacher. I'll soon be posting a video interview I did with Helen and one of her student's from her Youth Dance Ensemble Program. And,

- other topics about JOM and dance.
