Best Resolutions for 2012

2011-12-27T17:55:00.000-08:00

The New Year brings with it a natural desire for change.

Remember that the point is not to set unrealistic goals, but to make lasting, positive changes that will bring about more ease and balance into your life.

This year, take a moment to reflect on your resolutions. Are you setting goals? Or are you setting intentions? Goals focus on a future outcome, while setting an intention is a "path or practice that is focused on how you are 'being' in the present moment." You can bring integrity and unity into your present life with grounded intention.

Concentrating on what you want, instead of what you don't want, can make all the difference when it comes to keeping your focus.Studies show a little self-compassion will help you stick to your goals and create lasting, positive change.

Happy New Year

TENNESSEE WALTZ SUPREME by Ira Weisburd (USA)

2011-12-27T16:59:00.000-08:00

From Ira:

"Rian Ungerer is a popular singer from South Africa. He recently contacted me to tell me that he had just finished recording a brand new CD and asked if I would like to choreograph another dance to one of his songs. I had already choreographed a Samba Line Dance earlier this year to his upbeat version of “Help Me Make It Through The Night” from his first “Timeless Hits” Album.

I have just written a dance to his cover of the classic “Tennessee Waltz”. It is one of the best renditions I have heard of this country classic !! "
