PULSE Priority Chat March 2011

The snow in NYC is slowly melting...and we are catching Spring Fever! Can you believe we only have two more cities left in the 2010-2011 PULSE season? This has been our largest year to date, we have had an incredible time and we thank you for training with us. In the Q&A last weekend, a dancer asked the faculty" "What inspires you?" Without hesitation, their answer-- "You guys, here- each weekend at The Pulse! We walk away, back to our jobs in the industry refreshed and inspired. We hope we do the same for you!"

We do feel as if the spirit of The Pulse is working ...Check out our PRESS and news listed in this edition. Wow!

Mark your calendars and book your flights! Dallas, Atlanta, Tampa for CAMP Pulse and SUMMER cities are upon us. Best of luck on all of your upcoming school, studio and Spring projects!

Pam, Faculty and Staff
