For many ladies it was their first time performing and for some their first time EVER dancing! I was so inspired by the guts of this class..especially after only 5 weeks of instruction!

Here's an interesting book on how the brain works and how you can change your social conditioning and the limited beliefs you have about yourself...very intriguing and backed up by science.

‘Moola Mantra” by Deva Premal
2010-01-02
As so many have requested, here is a beautiful beautiful CD.
I have been playing this the last few months during the zoning portion of the class. The great thing about this sensual CD is that it can be played continuously...it is a mantra that keeps re-inventing itself.
Makes you slow down, reflect, and get in the "zone".

A 2010 message from “The Church of di”....
2010-01-01
So..listen up babes...I've been thinking..pondering as they say...
My mind has been twirling in a bunch of confused thoughts and observations and I finally can see through the clouds and clutter.
After a crazy year of building this company, new staff, new dance company, new locations, trade shows, merchandise, outdoor festivals, Calgary Oscars, teaching a thousand classes, charities and oh ya...that outrageous NAUGHTY CHRISTMAS party!!! ..that I am still recovering from...and did I mention I have a 1 year old baby girl, a husband ...and I also work as a dancesport trainer and judge... 
Here is my revelation and observation of 2009...
"WHY DO SO MANY WOMEN FEEL LIKE CRAP?!"
I just don't get it. Here we are, living in this free liberated society and we are busy feeling un-worthy, fat and ugly. I myself am constantly struggling for self-acceptance and self-esteem. The good thing is that whew....I caught myself once again in bunch of thoughts that I don't have to believe. In fact, I don't even have to think them. How shamed we should be for not being happy and not living free, loud and crazy fun lives. Look at the status of women around the world I tell myself....and here I find myself whining about my ass. How pathetic.
So that's it. I decided. No more whining...no more feeling like crap..if I have thoughts and conditioning that don't serve me..then I'm gonna do something. See a shrink, jump off a plane,read a book.. dance at a Burlesque Gala..then damn it! I'm gonna do it! And then I'm gonna make sure that I do something, anything, to help others.
The only way to honor all the women before us and to inspire those that have less is to be HAPPY!!!!
So for God's sake..get in class girlfriend.
Big Kiss and hope to see you in 2010!
