Dance for Dyslexia... Making a Difference...

Aloha!

SJW is always humbled yet proud to kökua our community through Jamathons... and this past Saturday was no exception.  Although the crowd was "small yet mighty", the crew truly SWERKED it with style and grace... all the while promoting dyslexia awareness, acceptance and understanding.

And much can be said for any "condition" our friends and family can be affected with.
We learned that at this Jamathon, there was a new participant... someone who had never really tried dance-fitness before... but at the encouragement of her family, decided to attend.  And although she's had to deal with her own physical challenges over the years... she did it!  3 hours later and she's earned the respect of everyone there and even walked away with a free-class coupon from SJW. She is now encouraged to keep at it... to keep dancing as a therapeutic way of helping with her condition.
So it is with great joy that we say MAHALO to the crew and all the instructors who truly made a difference that day.  Serving one another... Isn't that what it's all about?

Keep SWERKIN', y`all!
