LOL! Isn't it cool that our mega-stars aren't divas? (Well, most of them, anyway!) I hadn't been dancing that long before I went to a Shareen el Safy workshop, and since it was out-of-town for me, and I didn't really know anybody, the workshop organizer sort of took me under her wing and invited me to eat lunch with them. There I sat, next to Shareen el Safy herself, and I kept thinking the whole time "I'm actually sitting next to a woman who danced in Egypt. Right next to her!" I think she even passed me the Sweet n Low!

I'm still star-struck when I see my heroes at workshops. I can barely manage to scrape together 4 words when I see Morocco! I wonder if that ever goes away?
