I had thee most esteemed privilige to dance with 2 members of FatChance at Tribal Fusion Faire last December, calling it an ATS collaboration. Once again showing that if you know the original ATS steps & cues, you can dance with anyone with little or no rehearsal and still perform an amazing show, no one the wiser! Well, after our performance, came of ourse, our bow. We grabbed hands and I instinctively went to just raise my arms and take a bow, and dance off. But wait....I was with FatChance....This meant I got to take : a Fat Chance Bow!!! Ohhhhhh yessss! Not just any bow...noooooooooo. The best bow: a Fat Chance bow!!!!!

I have always admired the way the ladies of FatChance take a bow. Lemme tell you....they give good bows! They take their time, like a fine wine, they let it breathe..... First their arms are extended heavenward, as if to say "victory is mine!". Then they join hands and triumphantly strut (yes, strut!) downstage just to the apron of the stage. That's the best part for me: THE STRUT! Love the Strut! Then, while scanning the audience do the ladies bow ever so languidly, rise back up (in sync of course), and just when we think they're done.....we hear their zils once again as they whirl off......leaving us breathless as they depart......***sigh***

Yes....I was a part of that and it was a beautiful thing! Thanks to Marsha & Sandi for giving me that opportunity at Tribal Fusion Faire 2007!!!! OTRA!!! OTRA!!!!
