Ragen Chastain has won three National Dance Championships and blogs at Dances with Fat. She is very amusing and good at statistical/study-reporting-y take-downs. And here she is performing with the Fat Bottom Cabaret at South by Southwest. Plotz-worthy.

On May 21, Austin-based Ragen will be leading a dance workshop at Re/Dress in Brooklyn, along with Body Love Wellness’s Golda Poretsky, a NYC-based wellness counselor who uses a Health at Every Size approach. Check it out if you’re local. After all, they say that life is tit for tat, and that’s the way you live; you deserve a lot of tat for what you’ve got to give. I think Heidegger said that.
