Ballroom Newsletter, Siskiyou County & Northern California – February 14th 2022
Dear All,
It is the week of Valentine’s Day (or V-Day, as some are calling it) so it is a good week to be kind to the hearts of others and your own heart as well. How? By taking them (the heart of another -and that other as well) and it (your own heart) dancing.
There is no greater heart healthy activity. Good for the physical heart by increasing fitness, good for the emotional heart by allowing it to express itself in the material world through movement and good for the spiritual heart, by opening yourselves up to centuries of tradition questing for deeper truths.
It teaches responsibility and obedience (freely given obedience, not forced obedience) and allows us to reach levels of grace and graciousness not accessible through the process of daily living.
Give yourselves the gift of all of this by taking your heart and someone attached to it dancing. Even the learning process of dance provides all of these benefits.
There. And you thought I couldn’t write a short newsletter.
Reward us for this by gracing and brightening our week with your presence in class.
Cheers,
Rick and Peggy Nixon

p.s. We are still respecting the mask protocols established by the state (masks not required if vaccinated, if not: masks. (We constantly monitor many other studios in California and Oregon {and a rare few across the country}. This seems to be the standard unanimous protocol. We will keep checking and modifying as per industry standards, medical understandings and simple, classical logic – as needed.)
