This week we are joined by Christin Hanna and Constantine Baecher of the Lake Tahoe Dance Festival. Christin and Constantine met twenty years ago as students at American Ballet Theater. Constantine's career as both choreographer and dancer has led him to the Hamburg Ballet School, Royal Danish Ballet and Compagnie de Carolyn Carlson amongst others as well as co-founding his own company Cross Connection Ballet and the Copenhagen International Choreography Competition in 2007. Christin has danced with Oakland Ballet, Cincinnati Ballet, participated in numerous independent projects and is a founding member of New Chamber Ballet NYC where she brought Constantine as guest choreographer in 2003. Six years ago they started the Lake Tahoe Dance Festival in Christin's hometown of Tahoe City, CA.
