Marvelous Monday, Part ll - The Evening Class

Hats & Taps' Monday started and ended on super high notes.  We were invited to Tap in the evening for an ARC (American River College) class regarding geriatrics.  Caring for seniors is a fast growing industry.  It was the final meeting for this class.  We came to dance, talk about being active seniors and answer any questions the students asked.  Many in our group are retired teachers, if there is such a thing.  Carol is a prime example.  She used to teach, and still does.  Only the subject matter has changed.  Even our most senior seniors confessed their ages which delighted and amazed the class. We learned more about each other as well.  And, we were even asked to do an encore!  Engaging with these students and the wonderful teacher of the class was a very special experience for us all.

We now, not only have a blog, but are out there on several peoples' Facebooks, UTube, and a possible twitter "Eat your heart out Hugh Hefner" comment, that tickled everybody! 

"Hats, I think yesterday was one of the most satisfying of my dancing.  The response to what we are doing was so gratifying.  Thank you all for your devotion to Hats and Taps.  Love, Carol".

Yes, a marvelous Monday, indeed!

A Marvelous Monday

Monday the 5th of December was a marvelous day!  Hats & Taps danced in the morning for the Easter Seals Cerebral Palsy Center.  What a delightful audience and staff they are! They were prepared for us with treats, water and a most charming sign!  We loved it!

 Many from the audience joined us dancing on the floor 

for the final number, Feliz Navidad.  

What a party it was, and a great way to start the day!

Our World Needs To Know....

Our Tapping World needs to know that every performance is special to us. We may not always get pictures posted or blog in a timely manner, but there isn't an audience we don't appreciate and enjoy tapping for. We had a wonderful time at St. Anthony's Church on November 17th, 2011.  The sun streamed into the tiled Foyer and twinkled on our tapping toes. The after-show hugs and comments were warm and welcome.  Thank you for having us!
