Tekla Kostek and Michelle Zeitlin, co-choreographers, are defining their dance vocabulary, along with composer, William Goldstein, to create their "creative habit". This dance initiative will present dance and music improvisation in both master class and concert formats, for audiences around the U.S. and possibly abroad. Currently, a few key dancers are part of the process - Meredith Ostrowsky, Ryan Hanson, Heather Case Miller lend their talents for this session, and other company pros are in the wings... William Goldstein and Michelle met initially on the set of NBC TV's "FAME" --he composed soundtrack and Michelle was a series regular principal dancer, hired by Debbie Allen. Tekla and Michelle have worked together in many ways, including as dancer/muse and choreographer, on the movie, "UNSUITABLE".
Heather Case Miller and Tarah Paige are cast as ballerinas with Director, Todd Haynes and Moxie Pictures, for Heineken National Commercial Campaign.
