<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Let me be the first to announce to the Academie
that the dance classes at University yesterday were a success!! We had a
huge room (Thanks Stephan!) and we needed it!! We had phenomenal numbers
for our 4 dance classes. The 1st hour was Beginning Italian and was
composed of brand new dancers, those with some ECD knowledeg and a few academie
members. I would estimate that 25-30 attended that class.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The 2nd hour was Intermediate Italian and we had
many of the same folks stay on...I guess they weren't scared away by the 1st
hour (YEAH!). The 3rd hour was my class (Beggining ECD)...my 1st time
teaching at University...At one time we had 6 sets of six...Yes, boys and girls,
that is at least 36 people! Some of the folks hadn't attended the Italian
classes but many of them stayed on for 3 or all 4 classes. I saw a bit of the
last hour (Advanced ECD) and some of those there were the ones who started with
us for the 1st class and had never danced before...Brave souls, eh?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I wasn't able to attend the Feast and Ball that
evening and would really like to hear if our success in the daytime transfered
over to the evening...I hope so!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>See you all at Nothing But Dance!</FONT></DIV>
