You can tell a lot about a person by the way they dance. I first met Nettie a few years ago at a Blues Dance that a friend of ours was hosting. She moves very powerfully and very delicately at the same time. She's not shy about taking on creative risks and challenges. As a result, she fills the room with joy whenever she walks in.
