Back to Dance Classes

After taking a long time off from dancing because of an injury in February, I'm taking dance classes again. I've been taking an Intro. to modern with Helen Hayes at Joy of Motion here in the DC area. As everybody says who takes Helen's classes, she is great teacher.

Joy of Motion has been celebrating their 30th year anniversary with classes, showcases and performances over the past couple of weeks. Last night I saw some excellent performances by resident dance companies at the The Jack Guidone Theater - located at Joy of Motion's Friendship Heights studios. Among the dancers were Helen Hayes, who performed twice - once in an improvisational piece and also in a duet with Doug Yeuell, whom I've taken jazz classes with.

Watching the performances has motivited to try to take at least 2 classes a week - in addition to modern, I'll probably go back and take jazz classes as well.
