NYC Celebrates National Dance Week

National Dance Week (NDW)-NYC, what a lovely hidden gem in the NYC dance sphere.  The10-day long festival that I was (as embarrassed as I am to admit) previously unaware of, I am happy to say I was involved and impressed with this year's festivities.  One of the reasons I'm madly in love with Manhattan is the privilege of walking around - to the Subway, around Union Square at work, past many a dance studio - and being surrounded by dance both formally and informally.  This comes as no surprise though - this is, after all, very "New York."

To get a feel for what happened from June 15th-26th please take a look at the below articles from examiner.com.  It's the kind of thing all us dance lovers should really make an effort to not only partake in, but promote, as it exposes dance (and all different kinds of dance!) to the wider public...and isn't that one of our constant challenges?
