thank you it does help!

Just wanted to say you are in my prayers for a quick recovery and all support systems will fall into place as you need them!

thank you this does help me

If the 20 somethings are having trouble keeping control it's usually because they don't want to "yell" at the kids (which is really that they need a firm talking to) First you can tell the teachers, that yes, the mothers want their kids to shape up and they can be a little more firm. Or perhaps instead of polling the parents to see who has dance training, you could have a parent you are close to, or a rotating list of parents and maybe one could sit in on the class to give that "mom" look when necessary.

My best to you at this difficult time. Please look into the book "One Bite At A Time" by Rebecca Katz. Healthy diet with specific cancer fighting foods is very important right now, and I know this book is a great resource.

Just wanted to leave a comment, there's not much to add at this point. Please do take care of yourself first. Another encouraging {{{hug}}}

I am so very sorry about your situation! You seem like such a stand up studio owner and mentor.

I am in Maryland! Where are you located?? I would be glad to see if I could round up instructors to help you. Connections here may help you since we are both in the same state!

I am at a loss of words but please know that I will be praying for you and I am wishing you the very best!!

yes you are right about the "yelling" when i had my talk with her that is what she was worried about. and thank you for your support it does help

thank you your support does help

thank you for your support and helping out, i did contact a local studio and she is willing to share teachers,--this is great and thank you again

Where in Bethesda are you located? I am new Bethesda and have been teaching dance for 12 years but I have been home with my new baby for the last year so I am not currently working. I would be happy to try to help you if you are nearby.

thank you, I do have help now--but thank you anyway
