When I was a kid, we went to dance conventions to learn from the masters who would inspire us with their movement, words of wisdom, and sometimes personal attention. I still carry with me today a few words of encouragement from one of them.]]></description>

As someone who travels frequently across both national and international time zones on business, I can attest to the mental and physical challenges of sleep disruption. And judging from the plethora of commercials for sleep medication on television and in magazines, sleep—or more important, insomnia—is a national concern.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been thinking about the issues of respect and credibility among dance teachers. Is the teacher who produces phenomenal ballerinas more credible than the teacher who produces the best hip-hop dancers? Is the teacher in small-town America less passionate than the teacher in big-city America? My thought is that all dance teachers pass on the gifts of dance in the most appropriate way for them. They share a common goal and I don’t judge how they do it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over the last few years I have become increasingly concerned about some of the judges and teachers at dance competitions and conventions. While some are amazing teachers who know their stuff and have a great deal to offer to our students, others seem to have a distinct gap in their understanding of technique.

		<description><![CDATA[I have taught dance off and on for eons. Years ago, a class of new kindergartners and I were taking a break, sitting and pointing and flexing our toes. One little blond cherub informed me that her feet were “so tired.” I asked her what she did at school that day to make them so tired. She stood up, hands on little hips, and, looking very serious, replied, “What do you expect? I have been walking on these feet for five years!”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Tonya Guldenpfennig is the person I admire most in the whole world. I started taking ballet when I was 50, at another studio. It was as if I was invisible. Then Miss Tonya opened Premier Dance Academy, and I started my real ballet instruction there at age 53. Miss Tonya gives her personal attention to each student. She has a contagious positive attitude and truly believes each dancer can achieve her dreams. Miss Tonya has fixed my hip alignment, my arms, my bottom—my everything. She inspires us all with her energy, her brilliant choreography, her faith in each of us, her amazing knowledge of dance and performing, her effort to make the studio better every day, and the way she has faced her own dance challenges with unwavering determination and plain hard work. She expects no more from us than she is willing to do herself as she dances with us, works out with us, sweats with us, side by side, every class. She is what every dance teacher aspires to be!”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a young folk dancer in his native Cambodia, Sokvannara Sar never dreamed of pursuing a professional ballet career; not long ago, in fact, he was unaware that ballet even existed. So how he got from his village to the corps of Seattle’s Pacific Northwest Ballet—with an extended layover in New York City and a side trip to Varna—makes for a remarkable story. Anne Bass has captured it in her engaging documentary, Dancing Across Borders, which came out last summer.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With recital production costs increasing, many studio owners are looking for ways to cut back—ideally, without sacrificing the quality of the show. Fortunately, technology is making it easier to produce recitals of the quality your customers expect while saving you a great deal of money and, in some cases, reducing the time needed for tech rehearsals at the theater. One such technological advance is the vast amount of lighting software available for theatrical productions.]]></description>
