Ballroom Newsletter, Siskiyou County & Northern California – June 27th 2023
Dear All,
Well, another successful Practice Party! Fun was had, refreshments were brought by several people (thank you each and every) and things were learned. We emerged well-danced, well-snacked and newly-knowledged (or re-knowledged, for some). Thank all of you for coming and we look forward to seeing even more of you at future practice parties.
In the meantime, keep coming to classes and building up your dance vocabularies (as well as improving your skillfulness on the dance floor). This is the last week of Quickstep and Salsa, so come learn some rock-em, sock-em steps that will knock your socks off (for those of you who like dancing sockless). That, or give you some really fun and very effective steps!
Again, this week: Quickstep on Wednesday, Salsa on Thursday (see below for times). You will have fun (or else).
Next month, it turns out, the Foxtrot is the next Smooth dance (on Thursday night in July) in the rotation and Samba is next in the rotation for the Latin dance (Wednesday nights in July). We will be focusing more on the American style steps this month for the Foxtrot, which we haven’t done for a while, so this will be a good time to recruit your absolute beginner friends and also for you to get a nice refresher course in the different aspects of that style of Foxtrot.
And, of course, Samba. So much more vigorous, even, than Salsa and, some say, so much more fun! Come find out if you agree!
We look forward to seeing your freshly scrubbed and smiling faces in classes this week!
Cheers,
Rick and Peggy Nixon
