Something you should know about Thea, one of our West 4th educators, is that she loves to dance for fun. For her, a successful party is simply not complete without a sweet, sweet dance floor. She tells us how her passion for dance led her to a series of Big, Hairy, Audacious Goals.
When our team hit the Wanderlust yoga festival in Bondville, Vermont, last month they had an amazing time (despite the inclement weather).
