If Diane Lane can pick up the pieces of her life and turn them into something beautiful so can you!

Nothing says feel good like dancing, 80s music, and Kevin Bacon.  Will make you realize that even you can teach a whole entire town how to dance!

Nothing’s better than watching a girl accomplish her dreams, get the guy, and definitely bend it like Beckham.
