HIGHER HEELED EDUCATION
For G-Girls and T-Girls

Miss Vera's Finishing School for Boys Who Want to Be Girls once again takes the lead in education with its offer of Amazing Grace: How to Walk, Sit & Pose in High Heels, a class for all women to be held at 7:30pm on Wednesday, October 3rd and again on Thursday, October 11th. By the phrase, all women, academy founder, Veronica Vera means women who've lived in that gender all of their lives, as well as transwomen, those who were raised as men but who transition to female, whether for a day or for a lifetime.

"For years non-trans women or "genetic girls", to use a popular term, have been clamoring to attend the same classes as the crossdressers and other transgendered adults who come to my Academy"...especially the high heel class" says Miss Vera. "We all want to get rid of the clomp in our clip, and a bent kneed "spider walk" is not attractive," she says, speaking of some of the pedi-problems the course will address.

Since 1992, Miss Vera the dean of students, and her faculty of experts have offered private classes, at what has been described as "a pretty penny." At $49, Amazing Grace is more economical. Women still earn less than men, about 76 cents on the dollar. And transwomen have a myriad of new expenses. Hair care and hormones alone, can send a t-girl to the poor house. While some transwomen have maintained their positions and salaries, many others have had to move into lower paying jobs. The group class makes sense from a number of standpoints. The participants are united in a common purpose, the grace of feminine movement. "Walking and carriage are so important," says the dean. "A woman who strides beautifully and confidently into a room is a step ahead of the game."

The class represents a new solidarity among gg's, transwomen and crossdressers. Miss Vera believes learning in this integrated group will be a unique experience, fun and enlightening for all.

Veronica Vera will host the event. Lead instructor is Maryanne Byington, the academy's dean of high heels, an award-winning ballroom dancer and teacher. Other academy deans are likely to participate. Miss Vera plans to continue these and other group classes. She invites individual and corporate sponsorship to help her to do so. "I'd like to help as many women as we can and, when possible, offer scholarships to needy debutantes."
