Dear David:

I was at a dance studio this afternoon in the south side and the kids were learning ballet from a retired Russian ballet dancer. She told me had danced with the Bolshoi in Moscow & St. Petersburg. I was truly impressed at the level of instruction & how none of the kids spoke Russian, but they had memorized her commands. The two boys and six girls are not just learning another language; no they are learning how to be in great shape by the exercise of dance. Which of course is very stimulating IV the mind, body, & soul. I strongly encourage their continued participation in this & other forms of dance!

Das Vi Danya,

Rory
