Congratulations to all of our students from the Ailey Extension Workshop who performed this weekend at the Kat Wildish Showcase!  We enjoyed teaching you all and watching you blossom on stage!  Each performance was better than the last and the closing night performance was fantastic!!!!!  There are some photos below, but more photos can be found at Kat Wildish's Photobucket.  The whole showcase also got a fantastic review at the Examiner (click to read the article).  Thank you again for being in our workshop and performing at the Showcase!  We hope that you will join us again in the Spring workshop and Showcase!

Just got an interesting email from a contact of Kat Wildish that the Grishko NYC store has just introduced a new line of ballroom, latin and tango dance shoes by Rummos, a company based in Portugal.  It will be interesting to try these shoes and see how they compare with the current front runners of ballroom dance shoes.
