Ballroom Newsletter, Siskiyou County & Northern California – January 10th 2022
Dear All,
Don’t forget, folks (last year you were all “kiddiwinkies”, but this year we have promoted you all to “folks”. Take a bow. You all earned it, folks) we are reversing the order of our classes. The WALTZ class will be ON WEDNESDAYS henceforward. There was a little confusion last week, but it all worked out for the best and everyone was happy. As will we all be this week.
And that means that the RUMBA/CHA CHA class will be held on THURSDAYS henceforward (a much better direction than “thence backward” . . . and much easier to accomplish!). So, make sure you come on the appropriate day this week, as the 2022 Accommodation Period ended yesterday, hence, we do not have the same powers of accommodation that we were able to bring to bear to last week’s minor confusion.
As an alliterative mnemonic device, just remember that Waltz and Wednesday start with the same letter and sound. You can even call it Waltz Wednesday this month if you wish. And Thursday and Thrumba start with the same letters, too (though the “Th” in Thrumba is silent when spoken {this newsletter is the only place in the world where you can get information like this, folks. Cherish it}). Of course, in the Thrumba class (on Thursdays, don’t forget), the purrs of contentment that have been emanating from the dancers as they perfect their skills have made for a first-rate thrum that one can hear even above the music. Join us and find that same bliss for yourselves.
Don’t forget: Waltz Wednesday and Thrumba Thursday. (Come to both, just to be safe!)
See you 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 monitor many other studios in California and Oregon. 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.)
