I’m back for most of Hot Rhythm!

Hot Rhythm Holiday is one of my all-time favorite events and I’m stoked to return to Austin! I’ll be streaming Friday and Saturday and then heading down to Galveston to leave for a seven-day cruise that I’m teaching on! However, no fear! For the first time ever we will have a guest host for the final day of Hot Rhythm! Get ready for Josiahdances
