During the last 2 months all the best dancers I have encountered have been single moms close to or over 30 years old. Their customer service, their ability to carry on a conversation, their savvy at providing mileage when it's usually not available, their attentiveness, and their willingness to please have all been superior to younger dancers. A few even had very well articulated exit plans, but were/are still performing at a very high level in what they hope is their last weeks/months dancing.
To these wonderful ladies - salute!


There is something to be said for experience.
