Pennington Dance's 29th Year Recital

It's been another great year of training young dancers to reach their potential. And the time has arrived for them to showcase what they've learned in the year-end recital. This year's recital will also feature a production number to 'Camp Rock.' And if Joe Jonas doesn't excite you, little ones in farmer costumes should. I'm even taking the stage along with some alumni students to Dolly's '9 to 5.'

There is a change in venue from the War Memorial this year. We will be performing at the Hopewell Valley Central High School's Performing Arts Center.

She's Crafty...

Across the ocean, colleague Michaela Edwards (ME) has been knitting herself silly. Actually, she was silly before she started knitting. I think the monkey might be my favorite! Check out her work here:

Samurai Elf


Husband and wife team, Miguel Guerra and Suzy Dias, are publishing a 7 part grapic novel series titled Samurai Elf(R). Your teens (and adult children) will love these beautifully illustrated short stories. You can by them on Amazon too!

Suzy is a colleague of mine, a great talent, and hard worker, so I wasn't surprised when she shared these books with me. But, I was in awe. Check them out!

TEDI Turns 20

For those of you that haven't seen the students of the Trenton Education Dance Institute (TEDI) perform, you must make it out this Thursday evening to see them at their end of year performance titled "TEDI Turns 20," celebrating 20 remarkable years of service to the Trenton Community. TEDI is an arts-in-education program that I have been volunteering with over the past 3 years. It's an amazing progam that unfortunately might not be able to survive another year if they don't get the funding that they need, so I beg you to contribute to this incredible program.
