Summer Adventures So far

This summer has been perfect so far. This is the first time in a while I've been able to sit down and update my blog. The month of July was pretty cray cray. I had the amazing opportunity to go up to On Stage America Nationals for the 4th summer in a row. While there i got to choreograph their two opening gala routines and then teach two jazz master classes. While there I met some amazing people and also got to see some of my closest friends Laura Geo and Raj! OSA also allowed me to sell my clothes which was awesome. It was amazing seeing all the new shirts and jackets on so many kids!

While I was at OSA nationals I got the chance to meet some amazing guys. They are apart of the convention Flow 40 www.flow40dance.com they are some great guys who travel around and teach all over the country, they do partner workshops with competition lines as well as in house studio work, check them out! They also look good in Kelly Colgan & Dani Vitale skull flannels. 

After OSA Heather and myself traveled up to The Pulse on tour in NY NY. www.thepulseontour.com The pulse is an amazing convention with some of the best teachers in the business. I am lucky enough that they carry my clothes. Thank you to Amy & Courtney for hustling all week until we could get there. It was an amazing weekend for all of us!!

The Pulse On Tour Secaucus NJ

This weekend Deanna and I ventured up to NYC for "Kelly Colgan Dancewear" It was the first weekend the dance line was carried at The PULSE on Tour. The Pulse is a dynamic and unique weekend dance event, featuring the top choreographers and instructors within the dance industry. Our faculty can be seen on reality television shows (such as So You Think You Can Dance), directing the hottest music videos and tours for leading recording artists, as well as producing and choreographing for headlining movies, commercials, Broadway productions, and distinguished dance companies. We aim to educate dancers in a non-competitive environment, and we pride ourselves on having a tremendous faculty who support this cause. 

This was our first weekend on The Pulse tour we had NO idea what to expect. The convention ran all day Saturday and Sunday with some of the most talented dancers from NY/NJ/PA/VA all over the northeast. The Pulse staff Pam,Mary etc were just amazing they sure do know how to run a convention that is why The Pulse is so successful and growing every year.  The teachers this weekend at Camp Pulse were Kherington Payne, Miguel Zarate, Nancy O'Meara and Paul Becker.

Deanna and I got the chance to hang out with Kherington and Miguel over the weekend. They were so awesome and are now proud supporters of KCDW. Heres some photos of them sporting the line around the weekend.

  

Kherington is from So You Think You Can Dance, The remake movie; Fame and E!s The Dance Scene.

  Miguel has choreographed from The Pussycat Dolls, MTV Awards and Hannah Montana.

We had a blast! Cant wait For Vegas!!!!!
