Enjoy the DEMO and TEACH videos - pretty good for a gal that for the last three months couldn't stand up by herself! The miracle editing is a little choppy especially on the demo when I filmed it "slow walk-dancing" then sped it up on fast forward to match the music - my moves appear very exaggerated - like an old bird trying to fly... but - at least I completed it - yeah! I appreciate all feedback - use my email too - thank you!
