SHEILA GRAZIANO has been the dance instructor and choreographer for the Saline Fiddler students since 1997. A tap dancer as a youth, she discovered traditional step-dancing at the Wheatland Music Festival in 1977, and has been learning and performing a variety of styles of percussive dance ever since. Her current performance collaboration is a duo with Michigan's state troubador Neil Woodward, and is called Matter & Ghost. Acutely aware of the need to teach the traditional arts to the next generation, Sheila considers it a great honor to be able to work with the Saline students on a regular basis.
