The fund set up for the Richard family.

8yo Martin was killed in the Boston bombings, his sister (a young Irish dancer) lost her leg. Mom was seriously injured too.

Dads, what about your son's participation is not worthy of pride?

@NinaAmir’s husband guests on My Son Can Dance - “I find it awesome that all of this can be wrapped up in one individual. I cannot understand what there is not to be proud of. I am confounded by fathers who won’t support sons who are willing to do something this hard, willing to sacrifice as much as this endeavor requires, are so athletically gifted, rise to the demands of the art form, and find a way despite the fact that they are males to do it with such delicacy and artistry and to produce astoundingly beautiful and transcendent dance for us to watch.”

Gorgeous dancing and setting. Love that Yaun-Yaun Tan’s leotard is the color of the sunset.

“Lion - Night and Day” is a collaboration with director Kate Duhamel (@KateDuhamelF3F) in which the goal was to allow for improvisation in dance and music while shooting. Features dancers Garen Scribner and Sergio Benvindo “BamBam” dancing to original music by Ben Joudvalkis.

Prancing, Dancing Lily - Children’s Storybook app

Prancing, Dancing Lily is an interactive children’s storybook app about a spirited cow who doesn’t fit in with the herd. Lily would rather step in time - than stay in line - so she leaves the farm with a clickety-clack and a song in her heart to travel the globe. Follow Lily around the world, from New York City to Spain to Senegal. Learn new dances, a bit of geography, and make new friends. Includes four free puzzles with three difficulty levels. For iOS, Android & Kindle -   http://bit.ly/YduBtl
