Looks like I’ll be teaching 2 adult Zumba classes for UBC Campus Rec in the fall. A little nervous as all of those 20 year old students will need to be physically challenged. I am very excited about all of my dance classes in general. So, of course that brings a nervousness as well until I actually have taught my first week.<\/div>\n
A very hectic month ahead. My daughters are taking so many lessons: piano x3, dance x3, voice lessons, fencing (Mist), skating lessons–not to mention skiing weekends this year.<\/div>\n
\u00a0Also, I am starting my new job which is professional artist (painter). This involves joining so many artist groups, promoting myself non-stop as well as the actual work: trips to photograph vanishing wildlife cultures, and then painting back at my studio. Possibly a studio change as well. Once I can afford it, I’ll move to a downtown studio. I also must study to hone my skills even more. That looks like a 2 month course in France in the spring. Not to mention I will be promoting the books I have written as well and taking a course on e-book publishing this fall.<\/div>\n
The dance is my passion–teaching Zumba will support my art career in its early stages until my first art shows.<\/div>\n
\u00a0This weekend is my first trip to photograph wildlife: wolves. We’re camping as a family at Yoho National Park Saturday night–we leave tomorrow, must pack up the tent today! I am paying big $ to walk with the wolves (with a guide) for an hour and a half, so I can photograph them.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Wish me luck–I will now be dancing both my Atomics and Zumba routines each day, until the classes start. I have to know all of the 25 songs inside out!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
These are a few stills from a dancing video I made. I had fun creating them–I love photography. Hope you enjoy them<\/span>.\u00a0<\/div>\n
