Hey everyone,
I believe that Debbie started with my wife Z-Helene back in 1990. I have video of her with Helene's community college class dancing to 'Spectacular Rhythms'. Debbie and Bahaia were in the front row of the class.
By 1993 she was dancing so well that we put her in our 'Rhythms from the Great Heart' show. You can see some of her performance here:

She had her own style even then and I can tell you that the video crew all fell in love with her!
Take care, Rick Fink
