3 Continents in 30 Days!

Dear Bare Feet™ Fans!

From Europe to the Appalachian Mountains of North America down to South America, the past 30 days have been a whirlwind!

I started in my old stomping ground of La Luna Dance Center in Ancona, Italy to teach the talented students of the school during their summer 2-week intensive - always a treat and always a kick in my behind! Grazie, ragazzi!

I then made my way through the Crooked Road of Virginia to experience the roots of Americana music and dance, stopping at the Galax Old Fiddler's Convention, the Floyd Country Store Friday Night Jamboree and the Carter Family Fold! I want to thank Virginia Tourism for their sponsorship and support on this trip - I had a blast!

And then from there, I jetted down to South America with my amazing crew to shoot the International Tango Festival in Buenos Aires, Argentina! A special thanks to Borello Travel & Tours, Hotel Design Suites, and above all Juan Fabbri and his team at Tango Porteño for making my Bare Feet™ dream come true! I don't want to give too much away before the episodes air, but let's just say I was thrown into an incredible performance my last day in Buenos Aires...stay tuned!

I hope you all had a wonderful summer, and I'm looking forward to sharing my upcoming Bare Feet™ adventures with you this fall - we have some big news to share next month so please keep an eye out for a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!

-Mickela Mallozzi
