There's nothing like it, is there? You spend a long while working your way up to it every year, then it's a long, action packed weekend (or week, practically) full of workshops, shopping, visiting old friends, making new ones, watching performances and (this year) trying to stay cool!

I went back to work on Monday--well, my body did. My brain was still re-living TF! It's been an exhausting week, to say the least. (:

I taught a workshop which was so much fun. I loved sharing the work EvilEye has been doing and I wish I had more time! Among the students who were all fabulous, I had the Rock Rose young ones. Those girls can dance. They were adorable, well-behaved and even thanked me after class. Thanks to all the workshop attendees for dragging themselves to a Sunday morning class. A feat unto itself. Special thanks to Noey for figuring out the sound. DJ genes are real.

Our show went well. We had a blast and after years of performing on that narrow stage, it seems that I never get accustomed to it! Maybe next year? I can't wait to see the DVD. If anyone has pictures, I'd love to see them. Feel free to post here.

    Haha! Yes, I believe the DJ gene is on the 14th chromosome.

    Your class was really great - combos that were true in ATS/ITS style yet innovative and it was something that participants could take home and use right away! It was also nice to see such a variety of students enjoy your workshop, from teachers to teenagers!

      I was really honored to have Sabine in my class, as well as Mariah of Rock Rose. I was equally honored to have participants who didn't know me and just took a gamble on the class. And I'm glad you were there because if you weren't, we'd have had to dance to my humming, singing and zills the whole time!

        Lori your TF class was awesome fun, and I have to tell ya we modified your buckshot combo and just used it in a performance and the crowd went wild! I vote for Lori to teach again next year. Love ya!
