Ballroom Newsletter, Siskiyou County & Northern California – November 7th 2023

Dear All,

 

Bolero was a big hit last week, especially with the new people who joined us.  And the presence of new people will mean an extra-diligent review process this week, so those of you who missed can still join us with impunity, as we will be thoroughly covering the basics again before moving on to some new stuff!  Come this Wednesday for a rollick good time! (Quiz for the week:  come up with an elegant term for “rollicking” and tell us when you come to class!)

And the Foxtrot class was highly successful, too as class members all picked up deeper understandings of what the basics are all about.  This month we will be learning both the International Style and American Style variations with lots of practice of going back and forth between the two styles smoothly and seamlessly.  Yes, that seems like a good theme for the month . . . we’ll do it!  That’s Thursday nights in November (except on Thanksgiving Day {when Mountain Fitness will be closed [that’s still four weeks of Foxtrot]}).

Come join us and have the time of your life (oops . . . this is a couple dancing class, so make that “the time of your lives”!)!  And don’t forget, the Foxtrot is the most elegant of the Smooth Dances and Bolero is the most elegant of the Latin Dances, so your Elegance Quotient cannot help but be improved (if you concern yourself with such things {I know we do! [and we concern ourselves with your elegance, too! <So there! /Wow! . . . a quintuple parenthetical phrase!  That’s got to be some sort of record!  Remember, you saw it here, first, folks!\>]}).

Looking forward to seeing all of you in class this week/month/year/rest of your (our) lives and eternity.  Remember, when it comes to dancing, there are worse ways to spend Eternity!  Come get a jump on Eternity now!

 

Cheers,

Rick and Peggy Nixon
