Ballroom Newsletter, Siskiyou County & Northern California – June 11th 2024
Dear All,
Waltz class was highly attended last week, and everyone had a good time learning basic Waltz steps. This week, after a quick (but thorough) review, we will continue on with a few more steps (all the while making sure everyone gets both what we review and what we add). So, if you have been kicking yourself (not one of the dance steps we prefer to teach) for missing last week, you can still join us for new, non-self-kicking steps and the review will catch you up quickly enough so that we can all easily move on to the new steps.
The Swing/Jive class was not so well attended (which was a big surprise, given that Swing/Jive usually stampedes the newbies out of the woodwork) but since everyone who showed up were at least somewhat experienced, we jumped to some more advanced steps and, again, everyone had a good time.
But if the newbies in the woodwork are tired of being in the woodwork, the good news is that we are prepared to use this coming week (Thursday, day after tomorrow) to cover the basics, and if you abandoned the woodwork, you would be able to join us with impunity (not that we would ever ask anyone to join us with punity!)
So, we say: woodwork-be-damned! Come join us for the basics in the Swing/Jive and embark upon a journey that will be both fun and invigorating in ways that will give you years of enjoyment and health. If the same crowd as last week returns (affectionately referred to as “The Usual Suspects”), we will carry on where we left off last week with some of the more advanced figures. Your respective attendances will decide which way the class goes and everyone will be happy (or else!).
We look forward once again to seeing a sea of smiling faces (tempered by as many frowns of concentration as it takes to bring the joy of dancing to one and all).
Please join us.
Cheers,
Rick and Peggy Nixon
