I'm first and foremost a teacher

So many of you may not know that I've been teaching dance to earn a paycheck from the late 90's on.  It's my profession.  My career.  I'm REALLY effin' good at it. I teach amateurs.  I teach professionals.  I teach social dancers.  I teach competitors.  I get off on it.  Besides teaching my ballroom competitors, one of my favorite things to teach is burlesque workshops.  It is SO exciting to see shy women transform to confident divas over a course of just a few weeks.  I love to see the excitement in their eyes when they step on stage, and the flush on their faces when they step off.  It gives me an absolute rush.  Almost as much of a rush as it does seeing my employees perform well, and certainly more of a rush than me actually performing.  So when you see those incredibly brave and amazing workshop women dancing at our shows, get on your damn feet.
