A Day at the Art Gallery

I just realized I forgot to comment on the day at the Art Gallery. I always seem to enjoy myself when I go to the Gallery and I always tell myself I need to go there more often. I enjoyed the drawing activity with the music.I found it to be rather creative and expressive. It is definitely a lesson I could do with any grade level. The B.C Binning exhibit was interesting, but my favourite was Betty Kovacic: A Roomful of Missing Women. I found the exhibit to be very powerful with the portraits and music, but the cloaked women in the centre of the room really set the mood for me. We hear about these women in the news, but the true sadness of reality is evident when you physically see how many women have disappeared. I found the exhibit to be very moving as I thought "It could have been me"

Yes, the swaying women in the art gallery were quite upsetting weren't they? I didn't expect to be as moved as I was. I meant to go back, but did not get a chance. Did you?

On Halloween, there were numerous art projects the students could choose from. This is one group of students making bats.

My GIrls
These are only a few of the dancers I get to work with on a continuous basis. Being a dance instructor allows me to be as creative as I want to be and my students are able to take my ideas and turn them into reality. The relationship I have with my students is truly special, one I will cherish forever.

Dancing at Broadway Dance Center
This past July, I was fortunate to go to NYC on an educational Dance Trip. Not only did we watch numerous broadway shows, take dance classes (with MIA MICHEALS!), we also toured the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art. What an experience! I have memories I will never forget
