New teachers coming your way!

The afternoon of Sunday, July 21 was full of sweat, laughter and good vibes as a room full of exuberant dancers auditioned for the Rhythm & Motion teacher training program.

In the words of R&M Artistic Director Dudley Flores, "The panel of teachers and I were so moved by the energy, enthusiasm and diversity of experience in the room - from dancing with each other and cheering each other on, to the shoulder rubs and sweaty hugs - it was one of our favorite auditions to date."

Out of thirty applicants, eight have begun the training process with our program. We have high hopes that many (or all!) will graduate and go on to provide the excellent standard of teaching that our students enjoy.

Look for friendly new faces dropping in to guest teach in R&M classes at ODC Dance Commons, Alonzo King LINES Dance Center and Berkeley Ballet Theater. Make sure to give them lots of love and support!
