Happy Dancing, Dancers!
Tricia Wood, (612) 600-5129
 
Check out my newly designed website!  _www.triciadancer.com_ 
(http://www.triciadancer.com) !  I have also  added a "Demo" page for community events who 
need dancers to perform.
 
OK, so I'm big into designing websites now (since I've had 9 weeks of  studio 
construction to wait on), also check out the new Cafe Bailar website  I just 
started working on two days ago- _www.cafebailar.com_ 
(http://www.cafebailar.com) !
 
And, of course James and I are always working on our new one, 
_www.tropicalballroom_ (http://www.tropicalballroom) !  We still have  more shoes to add, but 
you've already got over 800 choices!  As you will  see- we're starting to 
announce our studio location, but no exact Grand Opening  date yet.  Probably the 
end of June.
 
Enjoy!
