"If you ask yourself why dancers charge so much for performances and workshops etc. We don't get paid vacation, we don't get paid sick days, we don't get bonuses for outstanding performances nor for Christmas. We don't have insurance plans nor do we qualify for unemployment. We sacrifice our family on special days so that we can bring happiness to others. Illness or personal affairs are not excuses for a bad performance. Next time you ask, remember that dancers are dancers because of the love of music, movement and expression but that love doesn't pay debts!!!"

Me with Meech and Didier of O-Trip at City Dance Annex in San Francisco last night. For those of you who don't know them, they're two of the best house dancers in France. They're in town to perform at Hip Hop Dancefest this weekend. Just thought you guys would enjoy a once-in-a-blue-moon photograph.
