Today is a historical day....

Today is a historical day. Obamas speech has left me feeling inspired, excited and overwhelmed with happiness. Sometimes you have to take his powerful words and apply it to your own life, make his words personal to you.

It's funny, this morning I read an email from a dancer named Laurie who currently lives in Canada. Laurie was interested in teaching dance classes online on DanceMass TV. She thanked me for providing this opportunity to the danceworld.

When Obama said that people judge you by what you have built, he is right. People often ask me what were my reasons to provide an online TV dance studio. The answer is simple. I wanted to make a massive change in the dance world, to bring the dance industry forward, to bring dancers together, to make dance easily accessible and to make a difference to the lives of all of those who share their creativity and passion for dance no matter where they are from.

Obama said "the world has changed, we must change with it" according to the latest internet usage stats, 1,463,832,361 of the worlds population use the internet. Thats a 305.5% growth since year 2000. 79% of the worlds population are not online so this means there's still a massive potential for internet growth for the future.

Well to those who have thought about teaching or learning dance online but havent actually done it as yet. I am here to inform you that the time has come... its time to change. Your opportunity is already here, DanceMass TV is growing by the day. Teaching dance online or learning dance online is no longer the future it is the present.

Today is a historical day.

Thank you Laurie and Thank you Obama, you are an inspiration !
