TribalCon was an amazing success, I have always been astounded by the amount of organization and work that goes into it, but it was exceptionally nice this year because Zi'ah took the time to write the "25 things". It was great to know some of the history and inner workings!

Ziah and crew, thank you so much. I know how much work goes into that craziness, and the event ran so smoothly and the vibe was SO GOOD! Thank you for the spectacular teaching line up. I've never seen a line up with such depth at a workshop before. More of that next year, please! I'm so inspired. My company is happy and inspired. My students are ecstatic. It's an awesome thing you guys do each year. Thank you so much!

Ziah - thanks for bringing this event to the Atl area. The workshops and the show were both awesome. I learned so much this year, and am already looking forward to next year. I'm a Tribal Con addict now I guess.

TribalCon rocks! Thanks to Ziah and Company for putting on a wonderful event and for providing me an opportunity to teach. My little family had a lot of fun and baby Miranda made lots of new friends. :-) Thanks to everyone for contributing to the positive spirit of the event! I hope to be there next year too!

It was amazing how Zi'ah and crew created an event that allowed us all to be challenged and inspired technically, intellectually and creatively as dancers, artists and human beings. ;) It was an honor to be part of it all. Cheers to TribalCon! :)

I'm so glad green dancers come to workshops. The bright-eyed excitement is so contagious.

Thanks for having me!!! I got a lot out of this event. I love that there were workshops devoted to technique, some to expression and some to history and theory (yes yes yes). Plus there was lots of good casual fun and lots of live music! And I appreciate all the organization that went into making the workshops and the "casual" experiences work. Much love

THANK YOU ZIAH and the TribalCon staff. This is by far the best festival I've ever attended. ...and I PROMISE I won't be so scheduling impaired in the future!!!

*cries* So sad that it's over. I do attend a lot of cons, but only one dance con, and that's TribalCon. I really miss it already! It is so great to be in the same place with people who love what you love, too. I met a bunch of really cool, crazy people. :) I'd like to say thanks to Ziah and the staff for putting on such a great event. And thank you so much to you guys for getting the three dream instructors I'd requested for this year, plus bringing back favorites from last year. You know I was *hoping* to get at least one, I didn't imagine that I would get them all. I can hardly believe I was so blessed!!!

Just in case anybody was curious... I blogged a short review of the weekend.

Mmm, that was good. The show rocked (and the Sound of Music is forever ruined to me, yay); the classes were top-notch; the vendors have all my money; and there are new friends to enjoy keeping up with until the next time in Decatur. Way to go, Ziah and crew!
