Hi everyone,

I'm Erika, and I'm Level 2 certified in the Suhaila Salimpour Format, and Suhaila herself has given me her blessing and permission to teach her Level 1 and 2 technique here in the NE Ohio area.

My next session begins on Wednesday, April 16, 2008. I hold my class at the Noreen Londregan School of Dance in Mayfield Village from 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm. Address is: 750 Beta Drive, Suite D, Mayfield Village, OH 44143 (just East of I-271 off of Wilson Mills Blvd. exit).

I also still have 4 more classes left in this session, and you should feel free to drop in for any of these remaining classes of this session at a tuition of $15 per class.

If you're interested and would like a flyer or more information, please email me here at Tribe or at elliott_erika@hotmail.com

I can be contacted here on tribe, or at elliott_erika@hotmail.com for further details or to answer any questions you may have. Class is open to all experience levels, whether you're already a dancer and wish to learn new technique to add to your repotior, whether you're brand new to the dance, or even if you're just somebody who is looking for a great workout!

I'm not sure how to link documents, so I'll cut and paste my flyer (which isn't nearly as pretty) right here:
