To All It May Concern:

Please accept my heartfelt welcome to the 22nd Annual International Dunham Technique Seminar!  I am very pleased that you all could join me here in East St. Louis, IL for this year's events.

While you are here, please take the time to visit the Dynamic Museum located at 1005 Pennsylvania Avenue and the Children's Workshop as well. I have dedicated a huge part of my life to the community of East St. Louis and treasure this Seminar experience each year.  This year, we have more certified Dunham Technique Instructors teaching than we have ever had before.  This is a banner year for the Seminar and we want you to get the greatest benefit from the events that are planned.  And, of course, our Museum is more exciting each year.

I am so very blessed to be able to return to East St. Louis to celebrate my 96th birthday and to celebrate my life's work with so many enthusiastic students and friends.

I sincerely hope that you will enjoy your classes and upon your return home do not forget about us here in East St. Louis. Your continued support through the years will ensure that my vision for the Dunham Technique remains sustainable for many years to come, and all that we are trying to accomplish.  Thank you for coming and I am looking forward to seeing you all again next year.

Sincerely,

Katherine Dunham
