Our featured student is the gorgeous Gemma. At a vibrant 71 years young, she is one of the most dedicated students I have ever worked with. I first noticed Gemma at the monthly workshops I was teaching in Quebec. I could tell she was challenged by the material but she had such determination and a great attitude. When she began private lessons, I saw an amazing transformation. I may have given her some tools and encouragement but the work was all Gemma. She practices EVERY DAY and does not give up. Gemma can mesmerize with the veil and has now mastered the ¾ shimmy. She also gets requests to perform. We could all learn something from this remarkable woman. Gemma truly inspires me to be a better teacher and dancer.
