Dancing bin man of W. London (the YouTube clip made me smile)
My favorite ballerina, Suzanne Farrell (in Don Quixote with George Balanchine, mid-60s)
I had to add hula kahiko (ancient hula), of course. :) {Every dancer of hula kahiko is an oral historian, telling ancient stories.}
~ Wishing you a lovely week! ~
