January 1, time change
Posted by Kyra on 27 Dec 2011 | Tagged as: Practice
Hi all,
There is another special holiday event at Sonny’s on January 1, so we need to reschedule practica for the day. We’re currently planning to dance 3:30-5:30 pm on January 1, then go back to our regular 4:30-6:30 schedule for all subsequent Sundays. Please pass the word — and watch this space especially on the weekend in case there need to be any further adjustments.
See you dancing soon!

Suelta is for all levels!

Hi everyone,
Just a reminder that everyone is welcome and encouraged to participate in Suelta–which is happening this Sunday 4:30-5:00. This includes folks who are still new-ish to casino. It’s a great way to work on footwork and timing and improving your dancing. So I’m encouraging everyone to take advantage of this opportunity (and thanks Ofer for leading us!). Don’t sit it out!

Hi all,
Sunday Practica is on for Christmas Day. However, we will be meeting from 4:00 to 6:00 pm — starting and ending half an hour earlier than usual — to accommodate a waltz party that starts at 6pm. Please pass the word to anyone who might not be watching the blog.
Thanks!
Kyra

Video of the Week

This is a performance (in Poland) to Maikel Blanco’s song, “Recoge y Vete,” that Andre analyzed in September. These dancers make some smooth transitions in and out of son time.
