Dance Teacher Lady

So I am addicted to bikram yoga. I took class today at 8am- yes, I’m a little crazy, to make sure I did something for me before tapping the day away with my students. Although I am tired now, at the time, it felt great! If you can handle lots of heat and humidity, it’s a great way to gain strength and flexibility and drop a few pounds… It’s just what I need to get me in shape for my wedding. Which reminds me- I still don’t have a dress yet- ahhhh! The clock is ticking! Anyone out there have any ideas? I need a designer!

Sunday is always cleaning day for Dance Teacher Lady and today is no exception. Of course, my cat wants to help- and by help, I mean she runs all over the wet kitchen floor and tries to play with the mop and bucket! Even though I want to make her into a “kitty pie” as Bryan says from time to time, I still love her and wish I could get her a playmate. I fear that she may go postal on any other kitty, so instead I found  a wonderful site that helps animals in need and it’s no cost to you. Each time you visit you can help feed animals just by one simple click. There are other links on the site for the protection of the rain forest, feeding children, etc. It takes no time at all and you are helping others in the process!

Happy Sunday!

I never get sick- that is, until last Thursday. I am finally feeling better after a love-affair with Theraflu Warming Liquid. Great stuff- I highly recommend it. And I am not a fan of medicine, I prefer preventative measures. So, I was able to get through an entire day of teaching Ballet today without coughing up a lung. Believe me, it was quite a feat! Tomorrow it’s back to yoga and chasing my cat up and down the halls. (Yes, I found her!)

So, I have sent Bryan off back to the UK (boo)… while he has been here he has managed to update my computer, cut music for me for a choreography workshop, GIVE me an IPod touch AND make dinner twice in three days. Now, I can’t find the cat- I fear she may have packed herself in his luggage for a holiday abroad…

Coming up with a name for this blog was a challenge, but then my fiancé Bryan remembered this story. I was walking up Columbus Avenue a few months ago and saw some old students- NYC is such a small world. I was walking by when one of them exclaimed ‘Hey, that’s my teacher! Hey, Dance Teacher Lady!’. And so the name was born…

I recounted the story to a close friend and her fiancé over brunch a few days later and he’s been calling me that ever since. It’s kind of become my unofficial nickname. (Thanks Greg).
