Future projects include a new duet to be choreographed by Kate Flatt, and for Entangled to be featured in a new film directed by Giles Foreman late 2010.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2006177411103259569-1948472805760000545?l=www.fusiondance.co.uk' alt='' /></div>amirhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05846460901174322557noreply@blogger.com3
