Miss Patti Bouree and her Cat Jete

Making her Debut at the Martinez Evans Dance Academy is Miss Robin from Houston Texas. Miss Robin will be debuting her new book "Miss Patty Bourree and her Cat Jete". This is a delightful story dance story of Patti and Jete. Books will be available to purchase and the author will be avilable to personally autograph your book.

When? February 16th, 2009

Where? Martinez Evans Dance Academy

Time? 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Miss Robin has spent 40 years inspiring children from all over the country. Her work as a nationally renowned teacher and choreographer has not only offered her the privilege of mentoring literally thousands of children through their most formative years, but has in turn provided her the opportunity of learning from each unique child in the process. The knowledge and wisdom she has gained through these years of experience is reflected not only in the mutual love she shares with her students, but in the love she shares at home with her own children. Miss Robin and her husband, Ken share the ability to inspire that has paved the road of artistry for their two sons, one a gifted and accomplished musician, the other a dancer on Broadway. This series of books is Miss Robin’s gift to the children of today. It is the culmination of a blessed life spent guiding children, by a woman who is herself inspired by that magical age when we dare to dream.

On behalf of the Martinez-Evans Dance Studio we would like to take this opportunity to extend a warm "Welcome" to each of you. Our objective at Martinez-Evans Dance Studio is to give quality instruction with the student's individual achievement level in mind. We feel that development of their coordination, poise, grace, physical and mental discipline will help them not only in their classes, but contribute toward a healthy mind and body motivated by proper value.

Dancing is hard work and takes concentration and coordination, but above all - DANCING IS FUN! Thank you for choosing Martinez-Evans Dance Studio to study the art of dance. We will do our best to make this year a great learning experience through dance education. You may be assured that although you are not present in the class room, your child is being instructed and disciplined in a manner keenly associated with progress and efficient dance training.

I hope our website holds the information you're looking for,but just in case it doesn't please feel free to call us whenever you'd like. We look forward to speaking with you. God Bless, and have a great day!
