"'But the main thing is that you have two feet; a right and a left.' Elaine Colaneri can't say enough about the power of tap dancing. By the time she was a teenager, she knew it was what she wanted to do with her life. In 1972, Elaine founded the Modern Jazz Dance Company, which she still owns and operates after a long career as performer and choreographer. At 70, she still imparts her enthusiasm for tap to her students, on this Thursday night to a group of adult women." (Providence Journal video by Connie Grosch; July 9, 2009)
