Today today today. Today was a little rough at first. I woke up later than I wanted and that always makes me anxious. Taught some lessons, came home, got some shtuff done. I picked out choreo music for my classes. Then I went to teach and I was pretty ornery. I just need to be more prepared and passionate about it. Then it'll just be fun. My tap class was surprisingly full. It's fun when there are a lot of them. I have more to offer. And the students are my age and skill level in other forms of dance, so they're easy to communicate with and they're professional.
Yesterday one girl Marli was asking me about New York. She's a very powerful, earthy presence but she's tall so she's looking into being a Rockette... it doesn't seem like it would be right up her alley of what she's best at. But she could do it, she's tall enough, skilled enough, it would be a worthwhile experience. It was fun to talk to her about what's important and what's not. I encouraged her to move with someone she knew and find a job with great people she cared about. I can stand by that. I also may be doing a voice over gig tomorrow. It was a last minute thing. My cousin heard about someone whose boss needed an actress to do an Irish accent... yada yada... I called and got a call to leave a message of the copy on this guy's machine. The studio time is tomorrow. I would have to cancel some lessons that I already reschedule once before. It might be worth it though. I told the guy I was $100 an hour - which is my regular price for instrumental gigs... but I'm not sure if that's competitive or too much or anything. It came flying out of my mouth before I could stop it haha. So I followed up with "but what's your budget?" I don't know it would be awesome and a good thing to add to my voice over reel -- but I'd also have to stand up my student and my cousin is getting married tomorrow and there's all these events through the day... :S. They don't conflict but it still makes me nervous. I also had another business coaching with Emily Grace yesterday. Which was awesome. All about Marketing! Good stuff. We did some fun brainstorming. I feel like we would be great friends if we just met randomly.. not to say that we aren't as is... but ya, she's awesome. Well that's all there is...
