UPDATE: How To TURBOCHARGE Your Spring

4 Apr

Toronto dance classes at Byfield Dance Experience

[Shawn Byfield's Toronto dance email update April 3rd, 2012]

Happy April!

Spring has officially arrived. Did it hit you like it hit me? Because just the other day I had a “holy eff” moment- “It’s already April? I swear it was just New Years…”

Yup, we’ve all been busy, I haven’t even written to you in a while. And look- that sneaky Spring showed up right under our nose. In a few days, charming tulips & roses will wink at us to stop by for a whiff. Which leads me into this thought:

Success starts with showing up.

If you haven’t been “showing up” because of [insert excuse here] then take a minute to yourself right now. Inhale, and smell the roses. Got some food for your thoughts below, and it starts with:

“Why Do So Many Say YES To Drugs? So They Can Get Uncontrollably Hooked On DANCE- WITHOUT Fear Of Intervention”

Rick James once said: “Cocaine is a hell of a drug.”

Call me your pusher, man, ’cause DANCE is a hell of a drug. Once it grips you, that’s it. You’re IN. Flying high… And when that dance hit starts to disappear from your life, you pretty much get the same withdrawal symptoms as those crackheads on Intervention.

Shhhh. Come closer…

How does a year supply of dance sound? Get yourself a quick, three-pay plan for an annual membership that costs less than the “insurance” you pay your neighbourhood thug.

Go on, take it. This link gives you 365 day access to some good stuff:

“All Dance Monsters Should Pay Attention: Here’s GOOD NEWS That Can Cure Any Bad Romance”

Did you tune in? LADY GAGA’s choreographer and artistic director Laurieann Gibson was teaching at BDX recently? Sweet Judas! Did you know Gibson was born this way? As in Toronto?

BDX & Gaga are definitely a GOOD romance. Here’s the news segment:

“How To Turn Your Flabby Arms Into Sculpted Works Of Art That Make Michelangelo Weep With Jealousy”

Yeah, I said it. If you’re sitting at home wondering how to fix that damn flab where your tricep should be, then I suggest- no, I URGE you to get into our Dance Workout classes. Here’s why…

In the Dance Workout classes I personally taught last week, we focused on some serious arm toning exercises. Sure, lot’s of bitchin’ and whining from my students ’cause it felt like burning. But guess what I tell ‘em?

I tell ‘em: “You’re not gonna die from carving out a sexier body.” You’re a beautiful piece of art under that excess marble. Train for your summer! Train for your future. Come sculpt those arms. 5 Dance Workout classes weekly! Schedule:

Shawn’s No-Nonsense Ninja UPDATE:

1.) Adult Beginner Tap Dance sessions start THIS Sunday…

* 1.) Adult Beginner Tap Dance sessions start THIS Sunday at BDX! 3pm – 4pm. Now here’s my insights:

I’m gonna be blunt today. Like it or not, this year is gonna zoom by, just like yours did last year. Did you do half the stuff you said you wanted to do last year? Or did you wait until it was “the right time” and ended up “waiting” your year away?

If you’ve been “humming and hawing” or “sitting on the fence” trying to decide what to do with your life… NOTHING will happen if you just sit on your duff. If you really want to learn something, then stop talking, get involved today and learn from the best.

Wanna learn to tap?
Guess what we do at my school?
WE TEACH YOU HOW TO TAP.

Surprise!

You’ve seen pics. You’ve watched videos. Heck, even Breakfast Television was live at our studio Wednesday morning because even THEY know the absolute best place to learn to dance is our place, right here in Toronto. What else do you need?

If Zeus launched a flaming trident from the heavens attached with a hand-written note in parchment saying “Michelle, This is your sign. Now go and dance already…” would THAT convince you?

You’re smart enough that won’t happen. Zeus doesn’t use tridents. Poseidon does. So for heaven’s sake, get your excuses out of the way and get to that beginner tap session. Hurry!

Only TWO DAYS LEFT:

* 2.) Join me in a basic “tap/steppin” class TOMORROW morning (Saturday) 10:30am. This week is the International Association of Blacks in Dance Festival and Conference. Funny story:

I performed last night. Did a tap solo to “Funkin’ For Jamaica” a favourite chune of mine I recently used at the #BDX2 showcase. While in my excitement on stage, I broke my right heel tap. Think it flew at somebody in the front row. If that was you, I hope it didn’t ninja-star you in the retina… Sit in the 3rd row next time. (And thanks for watching BTW)

Anyway, I’m teaching a beginner tap/steppin’ class open to everyone. Yes, everyone. No, you don’t need experience or tap shoes. What’s steppin’? Show up tomorrow and you’ll see for yourself! You MUST register in advance:

* 3.) Make 2012 INCREDIBLE! Last chance Annual Memberships to BDX because our schedule format changes February 1st. Now there’s even MORE offered at the studio and it’s exciting stuff. Just so you know:

If you want to have dramatically better health AND better dance moves this year, re-read 1.) above and then, DO SOMETHING that will make your dreams come true.

Speaking of dreams…

I can’t speak for everyone, but I DO know many of our students have noticed better flexibility, improved memory, can touch their toes without grunting, can do handstands again, lost weight in their thighs, stomach and heaven forbid- their ass, just from hanging with us a couple times a week.

You don’t have to be at BDX every day. Just twice a week. You’re at work five days a week and it makes you irritable. Two days with us and your jeans fit again… Wouldn’t it make sense to make a choice that benefits your health AND your sanity?

Here’s where to get your mojo back:
