Email September 2003 'Hello from Akiko in London' Hi Ana, Thanks a million to keeping me updated with the news from your class ! I'm glad to hear that everything is going very well for you. I really miss your classes and Dublin. But apart from it, I'm more or less settled down here in Maidenhead in Berkshire.Regarding my recent Flamenco activities, I took two Sevillianas classes with a Spanish student from Seville during the summer, which was good fun. Thanks a million for the information you gave me before I moved to London. I started going to Maribel's class in Covent Garden every Friday. I might be going to a Flamenco pub, where I've heard people gather on every third Sunday in amonth to listen to Flamenco music and do informal Sevillianas dance session. :) Should be great fun! I love dancing and really want to keep on doing it. Could you please keep me posted with news from your class ? I'll regularly visit your web-site to catch up. And I'm looking forward to seeing you again someday. Many thanks again and best wishes, Akiko Hoashi. |
