any excuse to post that picture of david is ok with me. :)

my flute lessons with the ex-principal of the LA phil cost $95 a lesson, and it got bumped up to $110 after a year or so. i was grateful tho, that he even took me as a student! i forgot how much money that is.

Forgot to say that I must have missed when David's hair went brown (sacrilege!). The times I saw him during spring season it was gloriously longish and blonde! Good idea about shaming him with the dance belt pic-that'll show him - hehheh.

I know what you mean about the cost of classes. Here in the burbs I was paying a lot to go to individual yoga and pilates classes at different studios. Then I finally joined a local gym due to the fact that they have the most awesome pilates coach ever and a really decent yoga teacher too. Now I've discovered they also have a very very good adult ballet teacher who I have been going to for extreme torture to my old joints. All this for a fraction of the cost I was previously spending. I had no idea a private ballroom class was so high! Your idea of the occasional private along with some group classes sounds like the right way to go. Don't stay out of the studio too long - it's so hard to get the muscles back into it.

You're right, Parker, I don't believe you for a second!!! Jennifer, I hope he knows we're kidding :) (I'm sure he does) and how much we miss him!

OK, I know you are not going to believe me, but when I just saw the first top pic of you and Pasha, I thought you were Anna for a sec. I was like, "ooh, where did Tonya get these cool pics of Pasha and Anna rehearsing." Such a nice shot!!

And we miss you at DTS. Wish you were doing the showcase with me!

Haha, Barbara -- here is an old post on that very issue: http://www.tonyaplank.com/t...

hehehe, Gracia Michelle and Jolene, Winger commenters, suggested maybe I should post that picture of him in the dance belt every day he fails to post at the Winger! He posted there the very next day :) But then the posts slowly became more and more seldom again...
Oh and thanks for the compliment! It just got so expensive ($95 an hour for private lessons...), so I'm trying to decide whether I will learn anything in group classes or whether I can try to afford a private every other week and combine that with groups, etc. It just got overwhelmingly unaffordable :(

But of course that's David - looking slightly younger and with shorter hair. BTW, off topic but he's been strangely silent on the Winger lately. He posted much much more at this time last year. I know he's ultra busy but isn't he on a break now? I hope he hasn't tired of the idea of being a regular contributer. And my goodness, you look simply mahvelous in the photos with Pasha - why aren't you dancing? Not an injury, I hope.

With all this talk of male dancers and Jacob's Pillow I remembered that I have performed Ted Shawn's choreography so on Sunday I will dedicated my manly dance to you.
