My summer teaching schedule is filling up nicely. In June I'm off to São Paulo to take part in the Brazil Circle Dance Festival, then to Croatia to run my workshop there, and in July I'll be the primary teacher at the New England Circle Dance Camp in the USA. Three continents in two months! Details are on my workshops page.
I've been buying some new anime series on DVD and there are two new reviews, for Kino's Journey and Ergo Proxy, in the anime section. Both are in the Good category (for now, as I've only watched them once).
I've put two of my Apple Mac programs up for general download and use - AndyBooks2 is a simple and easy accounts and bookkeeping program while Invoicer2 is a straightforward invoice manager. You can get them from my software page.
September saw me visiting Italy to teach my first Italian dance workshop (in English). The theme was Tricky Rhythms and I went into all sorts of irregular dance patterns, quite a challenge for the group but one that we mastered and enjoyed. I even received my first ever Italian appreciation for my teaching.
While in Milan I ensured my continuing good luck by spinning on the bull in the Galleria. Well, as far as it was possible.
There are two new Xenos CDs in the dance music shop - Florinalia features dance music from Florina in northern Greece while In The Orange Grove is a collection of previously unreleased dance tracks. Both are excellent!
