SERBA
Good Wednesday everyone!!!
Hope all is well, I don't have alot of time to sit and type but I just wanted to say hello to everyone and that I miss them. I had alot of fun this weekend at SERBA in Durham, NC. I left on Wednesday and returned on Sunday, and I haven't stopped going since. We had really great teachers including the amazing Finis Jhung!!!, I still can't believe I was so privileged to take a class with him. We also had one of my favorite teachers Stephen Pier, whom I had this past summer at the Atlanta Ballet Summer Program, and a Russian woman who we had some serious language barriers with. I had some really great jazz and modern classes. I learned some of Fosse's Steam Heat, and did a little bit of Hip Hop, it was so grand. I also was able to have a character class with Mr Pandi from North Carolina School of the Arts, it was such a blast. My friend Tabatha and I were paired with eachother and we rocked that class( that is when we didn't mess up:) We watched two hour long performances every night and cheered on our fellow class mates who got to perform in them, afterwards we were all supposed to go to the themed parties where we could eat and dance to some "groovy" music. My chaperones were the best, and very accomodating for my diva needs ;0 and I was able to make my appearance at the party, grab some grub, and walk across the street back to the hotel so I didn't have to stay up so late, and endure the painful show of the way too young girls dirty dancing, thank you very much! I did however stay all night at the Gala Evening which was really beautiful, wonderfully catered,and had a five piece band that played great songs, I had so much fun dancing the night away, I really need to do it more often.
I'm still pretty tired form major lack of sleep, we had very early mornings and I don't sleep to well in hotels so it's been great to be back in my bed trying to get some quality down time. I should be fully recovered by tomorrow,I hope:) I've been quite busy since then so I will write to you soon about all the other happenings in my life, have a blessed week.
P.S.
I want to thank my wonderful roomie Tabatha, Claire, and
Hannah, I don't know what I would have done w/ out you, you
made that experience so great. I love you:)
