I’ve danced in a lot of places in a number of situations. My favorite venues, however, have been the homes of families who’ve hired me to bring joy and fun to their special occasions. The sound system may not have been optimal, the carpet might have dragged my turns, the dog may have attacked my costume -- but we had FUN. Honestly, isn’t that what it is all about?
