Ballroom Newsletter, Siskiyou County & Northern California – February 13th 2023

Dear All,

 

Did someone say Valentine’s Day?  The day of flowers and chocolates?  Well, if truth be known, flowers carry pollen, and chocolate is chockfull (so to speak) of sugar, each with its own potential peril!  Peril as a present?  Of what are you thinking (note the correct English, folks; the more incensed we get, the more correct our English becomes)?!

What do you mean there are no suitable substitutes?  We can think of an excellent substitute without even having to give it a moment’s thought or without awakening even one brain cell!

That’s right: the gift of Dance (as in dance lessons, dance partner, dance parties and dancing itself!). What could be easier?  The gift of physical activity, the gift of a rare but impressive social skill, the gift of a stronger, healthier brain in our latter years, the gift of caring about the well-being of another and the gift of committing greater blocks of time to be in the arms of that special someone (or preparing yourself to be able to commit greater blocks of time to be in the arms of that special someone once he or she finally heaves over the horizon {keeping in mind that, if someone is going to be heaving, we would all rather it be over the horizon}).  And that is just a few of the plethora of gifts that dance can bestow.

So, why not bestow it on that special someone now (who is either here or who is one day to appear) and bring them to dance class (or come yourself as an act of faith that one day he or she will appear).  ‘Tis the season to dance merrily.  Don’t let this opportunity pass you by!  I know we won’t!

 

Looking forward to seeing you all in classes (weekly schedule below).

 

Cheers,

 

Rick and Peggy Nixon
