Some of you know that I have my own business where I go to schools and perform interactive concerts for kindergarteners. (I am a former teacher) Although I have played guitar and sang for years (that's the easy part), the "interactive" and movement part had become progressively more difficult for me because of my size. I am happy to say that today I am moving just fine! It's made a world of difference in the way I conduct myself professionally too. Here's some then (May) and now (Today) pics.
