Gypsy Caravan Workshop April, 2008

Cheryl and Paulette
Vikki and Paulette
Just getting acclimated and back into my time zone, I headed to Philadelphia with our Urban Berber, Cheryl, to assist me in another weekend of workshops. Cheryl and I laughed a lot together while we danced—what a delight. Having danced in Philly before she moved to Portland, Cheryl was able to reconnect with some of her old friends, while I made some great new ones! Vikki Williams sponsored us and has done an excellent job spreading the tribal word around that area of the country. The workshops were sold out, the show, casual but professional. The performances were varied and exciting. Before the weekend workshops, we had a great three days of wonderfully intensive Collective Soul Level One, with ten now-certified dancers. Rima, my host, was stupendous and we cooked and laughed when we weren’t dancing. Exhausting and exhilarating. With another promise to return.
