Perhaps we should ask what is NOT dance? If you think you are dancing, you are! If you think someone else is dance, they are!

Maida Withers, choreographer, dancer, teacher, celebrates four decades of dancing in Washington, DC with the world premiere of Thresholds Crossed by The Dance Construction Company in April 2006.
