Website design is fun; congrats on getting your sup and running and with good content, too. I can suggest a few nitpicks, which you are free to disregard if your aesthetic and mine are different.

- For the background, it would be visually effective to use a single large image rather than a tiled one. Especially since the background is static when the content scrolls.

- The header image would be more obviously a header is if had text overlaid or a frame of some sort. I thought it was the first post until it appeared at the top of all the other pages.

The great thing about websites is they are not set in stone. I tweak my site design annually (sometimes more frequently) to adjust for new technology, modern styling and my personal taste.

I actually reviewed your site a few weeks ago after I watched one of your videos (ghost clown girls in the hoola barn, teehee) and I must say, I really like the changes you made here.   I especially like the new format, if I was a local customer I would find it a big selling point because your personality comes through in the text/pictures/video you've chosen and it's easy to contact you.  That ice skating hoop video is fucking amazing, I've got to try that!  You might want to consider adding a tutorial or a demonstration of your teaching style.  My only criticism is that I don't understand why the Queens of the Stone Age song is a graphic that takes up most of the screen, I dunno maybe it's just my browser.  Other than that I think it's a very effective website, and I would totally get some tutoring from you if I lived closer!

Thank you. The background could be replaced by a nice montana mountain picture. Thanks for the feed back. I'm going to start fixing it up!

Queens of the stone age's song could be below my information. thanks for the insight! Born to hula...such a perfect song.

Building a website seems like writing a story. You keep seeing new flaws and better ways to improve each time you review it.
