Musings:  Christmas is the season of giving, but dancers don't need a season or a holiday in order to be giving. Dancers are used to giving, every time they dance. Dancing with someone means giving someone the gift of your attention, your musicality, your acceptance, and your trust. With every dance, we give our touch, our connection, and we do all we can to make another feel beautiful, comfortable and appreciated. Off the floor we bring these gifts to people in our community, too. Christmas is also for family. We are your other family, whether you know it or not. Many of us (including me) have been blessed with an outpouring of love from our dance family at some of our most difficult times. So to all of us in the partner dance family. I wish us all the merriest of holidays.

Sorry, there will not be a New Years Eve party this year. Stay home, stay safe.

Private Lessons:  Yes, we can have a socially distanced lesson here! You can bring your own partner, or if not, there are some great exercises we can do and techniques you can master on your own.. Or we can do a video lesson - it works great! How about a gift certificate for lessons for when this is all over? Confidence in the future! 














Musings: This forced social distancing has been so hard on all of us dancers, but only because we dancers are so lucky. We have become so used to always having someplace to go, and someone to talk to, and someone to hug, and someone who will hug us back. When this is all over, and it will be all over, we should not lose the lessons that it has taught us:
  • Take the opportunity for engagement when it is offered.
  • Share the hugs and the love and the touch and the connection.
  • Wear the outfit. Even if it is too much, out of style, doesn't quite fit, is a little crazy - if you love it, wear it.
  • Dance with everybody.
Happy Holidays, everyone!!
