Yaaayyyyyy!!!!!!

I have some exciting news to share with you!

At least it is SUPER exciting for me. In fact probably THE most exciting since I moved to New York City eight and half years ago…

And if celebrating this wondrous news with me isn’t enough, you can watch me and Eric dancing ballet in a rather unusual place!

Ha ha ha ha

I hope this inspires you to keep keepin’ on and live your dream.

Leave me a comment and tell me about yourself. Even if I know you, tell me something that I don’t yet know. And if you want to come to the PARTY :)

We will be having a big party at some point soooon! In New York (so I’ll let you know when you can book your ticket if you’re not already here!) Give me a shout out in the comments and I’ll make sure you get an invite!

Loads of love and may your dancing legs be dancing :)

    Congratulations!

    Something you don’t know: I’ve been dealing with insecurity lately, and I recently accepted that I do indeed feel insecurity. Then, suddenly, tons of good things happen to me! Including singing really well. (I just started singing lessons a few months ago.)

    Something you do know: I want to come to the party!

Congratulations Laura and Eric too, and I feel inspired to keep on my path to find a more peaceful balance of work, family, me time, dance time, nature time, when I watch you two dancing before your interview! Thank you for spreading that feeling of joy and trust…I feel it! xoxo Kim, Kaleo, and Mick :)

    Congratulations Laura! Another moment from your heart which I truly appreciate. I loved the dancing video – it must have felt so liberating to let your spirit free instead of sitting and fretting :)
    Love,

    Congratulations Laura! What a relief and exciting prospect at once.

    I am a former ballet dancer and Pilates instructor who now enjoys Bollywood fusion, Zumba, Vinyasa yoga and other movement forms at the YMCA. I took workshops from Eric a few years ago at Mind Body Spirit in Santa Clara, CA and found your blog somehow thereafter. I am enthralled and enchanted by all the goodness and ease you two inspire. I would love it if you taught some workshops in the SF Bay Area.

    Hi Laura,
    It’s Emily from class.
    Congratulations to you! Now there are endless opportunities.
    I remember that waiting room when I went with my husband. I love love love that you danced a walz in there.
    keep up the great work and stay for a while!
    best, Emily

    Congratulations! One of my sons just became AMerican a couple of months ago so the anxiety is known to us too. Glad it’s over. The dancing brought tears as I have forgotten how to be so spontaneous. You open eyes and ideas in me, Laura. Continue to do so with my love.

    Love, love, love the Actionships.

    • Laura Hames Franklin
      April 28, 2012 | 3:16 pm

      Ah, Sandy. Thank you for sharing that! It warms my heart to inspire so deeply. Thanks for shining your love on the Action Ship! It’s here for you :) xo

    Thank you for that inspiration and congratulations! I really need that extra push to keep trusting and envisioning, because I’m moving to Europe for dance and walking into the unknown of sorts, which is a bit scary..so keep having faith in the magic and in our hearts! Thanks Laura!

      April 28, 2012 | 3:18 pm

      Yay!! You’ll be awesome!! Keep visioning and know that your magic will take care of you way beyond what your logical mind can understand. Heart love :)

    Congratulations!!! I am so happy you are staying in New York. I got a little nervous when I heard about you and LA in the begining of the video. I looking forward to take more classes with you.

    Love,

    Congratualtions on your Green Card. I am a dance teacher in the North of England and also someone who does light work and other ‘Alternative’ things. I really appreciate what you and your husband do. I love the e-mails and have shared your web details with friends. I try to take what I can from my alternative side of life into class, although I do have to be careful how I phrase things with the kids, generally it’s okay. Although some of them think I am abit strange, but hey, that’s okay. Many blessings to you and yours and please keep doing what you do xx

      Thanks Elise! It’s great to be able to connect so far and wide and share the magic through the inter-web!! Thanks for sharing it :) Welcome to the ‘strange’ club!.. which is soon becoming the ‘normal club’!! Thanks for your continued support :)

    Laura! Congratulations!!! That is fantastic news! This must be such a relief!! We have been waiting for our Australian visa for over 4 years, and though we already live here, it doesn’t feel like we are fully there yet. Thanks for this inspirational video, magic does happen…. Enjoy!!

    • Laura Hames Franklin
      April 27, 2012 | 7:30 am

      HI Melanie :) Yes, exactly. I know how it feels. Keep believing and feeling the support that goes way beyond these boundaries of countries… but into the earth and the reason you are here/there. And then trust in the magic. It will take you there in the perfect time. I’m holding the vision for you too. Laura xo

      Laura, I had no idea you were waiting to exhale all these years. Proving that you were really married should be the very last test you and Eric should ever have to take to prove anything to anyone. Welcome home! Much love and warmest best wishes, Ellen

      • Laura Hames Franklin
        April 27, 2012 | 7:40 am

        thanks Ellen! Yeah, I know… I think was was quite obvious when we were there, but it’s still a big relief :) Thanks for the love and welcomes. I really appreciate it xo
