Hi everyone

Well, the survey has spoken. Some of it is loud and clear, and some of
it - isn't.

Here's the clear part:
People want mixed level and advanced classes about 50-50.
Improvisation skills and classic oriental tied for first place, with
performance skills coming in second, and dance construction in third.
People clearly prefer combinations and fragments to full choreos.

The unclear part:
Pretty much every single person wanted different days/times/places/levels.

***SO if you haven't taken the survey yet, please let your wishes count!***

My solutions so far:
* Continue weekly mixed-level classes in STJ. Possibly offer an
inter/adv class, but post available times/days first to see if there
is interest.

* Offer workshops (rather than weekly classes) in other areas, maybe
once or twice a month. These can be weekends, or Monday or Friday
evenings.

The structure could be first half mixed level, second half
intermediate/advanced, so folks can sign up for one or both. As
always, people are welcome to self-select their level. Price will
probably be around $20 per class hour. It will be worth it.

I'm here until the end of December and that's it until spring. I want
to teach classes. You want to take them. Please take the initiative!
Find a space and coordinate the event. Help promote it. I will provide
flyers, info, etc. I will provide electronic signup. We agree on a
minimum run size. You get a free workshop, and I get to show up and do
my thing! What could be sweeter?

Love to everyone and looking forward to seeing you this fall,
Alia
