The latest fun class I took at the congress was Eddie's boogaloo and pachanga. Dances I've done before but its the teaching method of this guy that makes him masterful. Simplicity, repetition, logical build and flava! Here's to all the 60+ dancers out there still contemplating weather or not they should try some dancing...DO IT!

Sometimes the beauty in learning is the notion of philosophy, a new perspective or new found respect for something ordinary.

This week we returned to the Lake Washington school district to support the efforts of a dynamic Spanish teacher who is doing great work in cultivating a global perspective with her 7th and 8th graders. This year the focus was on the Dominican Republic and Cuba. It is so refreshing to have the opportunity to share and collaborate across educational divides. New Year 2012, teach me more!
