C'mon people, lets celebrate this wonderful thing!

In case you don't know some of the people on the pics:

1. Ballet legends Rudolf Nurejev and Margot Fonteyn
2. Fred Astaire with Lucille Bremer and Fred Astaire again
3. Donald O'Connor and Gene Kelly
4. Sheila E. and Cat
5. Both Mayte
6. The Twinz with P

Real dancing is a beautiful art. I've been to the ballet a few times and I'm always amazing at the strength of the dancers and how graceful they are. It's a great way to stay in shape, that's for sure.

That's great! But what, the girl on those ics,your daughter, is only 15? She looks older. Anyhow, it's truly great when someone commits her/himslef to something like that! I wish I was more like that. To your kid

^ Loved him.

I actually have a framed photo of him with my favorite aunt in my house. She died of a brain tumor, but had been taking a tap masters class from him the year before she was diagnosed. Now they're both dead.
