Dear Bare Feet™ Fans,

I hope you all had a festive and safe St. Patrick's Day weekend, celebrating all things green, Irish, and maybe not-so-Irish! We've had a busy month, including the complete make-over of the Bare Feet™ website - check it out! And of course, after all of the snow that New York has been getting lately, spring is finally upon us! With the start of a new season not only comes a new Pope (Viva Argentina!) but also a new Bare Feet™ series (Viva Argentina!...do we sense a common theme here?) Today marks the launch of the highly anticipated Bare Feet™ in Buenos Aires series on the Bare Feet™ YouTube channel. This six-part series is our biggest undertaking so far; not only will you catch me trying my first ever milonga in Buenos Aires, but you'll also be joining me on my mishaps and triumphs throughout the city that is the birthplace of the world's most passionate dance, the tango!

Of course we need to give a special GRACIAS to our Argentina sponsors who helped make this tango adventure possible - Borello Travel & Tours, Design Suites, and Tango Porteño!

And last but not least, tune in to WGCH on Saturday, April 6th at 9am EST - I will be the special guest on the Italian Hour Radio Show (don't worry, the show will be in English!)

Happy spring!

-Mickela Mallozzi

A Big Bird-ie told us that tomorrow's episode of Sesame Street will feature Mickela dancing with Pooja Narang and her Bollywood Axion dancers in Murray Monster's People in the Neighborhood segment! Set your DVRs because it's going to be a Bollywood Spectacular! Check your local PBS listings for time and channel (word of the day is choreographer - episode title: Lifting Snuffy)

And didn't catch the Bare Feet™ Behind-The-Scenes on Sesame Street video? Watch it NOW to see what it is like working with some of the most creative (and FUN!) people on television!
