Today we prepared and performed a lecture demonstration for Osher Lifelong Learning Center. We had to reorganize the lec dem a bit from what we did for Family Fun Fest because we performed it without our trainees, but it went off perfectly! It was a real treat having the ladies in to visit the studio.
Also, remember that this week, October 5-11, is our fundraiser with Hemingways Wine & Bistro. Be sure to stop in for a fantastic meal and let your server know you're with MCB. $3 of each entree will be donated to us, so eat hearty!

Words to live by?: “I want to know if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes, without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, remember the limitations of being human.” This is from the poem "The Invitation" by Oriah Mountain Dreamer. I actually have this tattooed on my back.
