Yes, Polly is still dancing AND TEACHING! In fact, her students once again claimed the overall team trophy at the Dixie Clog Competition. This last year Meg Metcalf helped Polly with her classes and they recently held a recital in Hurricane at the old Fine Arts Center (please tell them to NOT tear that beautiful building down).

More recently, the tappers in our family learned the MOST DIFFICULT original choreography to Moses Supposes from Singing in the Rain. We performed it for the HHS Broadway Magic fundraiser last Spring. It is certainly one of the more difficult dances I've ever had to memorize! What's more is that Mom learned it by watching the movie with Gene Kelly! There were a few parts where she had to copy the sounds (sheesh). It took her days and days- any lesser of a dancer could not have picked it up.

She originally learned this famous tap dance to teach to the advanced tap company at Diamond Talent where she has been teaching strictly tap for almost 10 years.
