Aerial Yoga with my girl

May 1, 2016 By //  by Ashley Leave a Comment

Kids LOVE to hang upside-down on the monkey bars…aerial yoga for kids just makes sense. My daughter and I have danced on stage together, practiced Pilates and paddleboard yoga together and now we share a love for aerial yoga. When I told my daughter that my friend and favorite yoga instructor, Sloane, was having an aerial …

Cinderella: LakeCities Ballet Theatre

April 17, 2016 By //  by Ashley Leave a Comment

One of the greatest secrets to a sold out show is good casting. For those in Lewisville who saw one of the three sold out shows at the MCL Grande from LakeCities Ballet Theatre’s  “Cinderella,” it was clear that artistic director, Kelly Lannin, has the secret in the bag…or the pumpkin carriage! We all know that Cinderella is a …

Modern Salt Caves for the whole family

January 24, 2016 By //  by Ashley Leave a Comment

  My friend and favorite yoga teacher, Sloane, introduced me to the Salt Cave of Southlake. Every time I’ve visited the salt cave, I leave feeling like I’ve been on vacation…totally relaxed. On Saturday, the yoga cave wasn’t ready yet (a couples massage was running a little over) and I was offered a mimosa before class…they …

The holidays provide some of the happiest times in the year.

Galveston Girls Weekend

June 30, 2015 By //  by Ashley Leave a Comment

There are few things better than a Girl’s Getaway, especially when it’s with a group of ballet dancers who enjoy wine, yoga, Pilates and fine food. Four friends kicked off the trip shopping at some local treasure troves and then hit up the Tremont House for cocktails on the roof. I’m still dreaming about the mojito! Then we happily walked the strand …

Mother’s Day: Dancing with my girl

May 10, 2015 By //  by Ashley Leave a Comment

  My Mom was a dancer, I’m a dancer.  It seems completely natural that my daughter grows up with a love for dance too. My parents put me in a creative dance class when I was three…all three of us started dancing very early in life. I remember several occasions when music would be on in …

December 16, 2014 By //  by Ashley Leave a Comment

It’s that most wonderful time of the year! The Nutcracker ballet brings more warmth during the holidays than any family tradition…with its giant growing tree, dancing candies, and waltzing flowers. Even in Texas, it’s easy to step into a winter wonderland and imagine we are back in 1892 in St. Petersburg, Russia. LakeCities Ballet Theatre’s production of …

The Nutcracker is a holiday tradition that truly puts you in the spirit of Christmas. Each holiday season, if we’re very lucky, we get a glimpse of what makes the moments of the season sparkle.
