Do you know where that term
originated? In long ago days, folks took a
bath in June, as the weather was reasonable,
purchased a new outfit of clothes and were sewn
into them, to remain so encased until the
following June
when the ritual was repeated.
Thus, the
wedding normally took place in June,
as the bride was fresh
from the bath and a-splendor in a new dress.
Low
maintenance for the husband for a year.
I knew you were hanging on
every word of that story!!
Below we have listed the group class series and dance lessons that are currently in our
schedule. We hope to see you soon.
In July:
Group Class Series - Every Wednesday for 4 weeks - $10.00 per class or $35.00
for the series
7-8pm - Bronze American Waltz
This is a syllabus class that is designed to teach Waltz to the beginner dancer.
It is also a good tune up class for those who have moved beyond and wish to get
back to basics. We encourage those signing up for this class to plan for the
entire series.
We will be offering certain classes such as this Waltz class as a structured
class that you can use as a "Foundation" for that dance. The class will be
followed later in the year by an intermediate class. How soon depends on the
attendance for the first series.
For these "Foundation Classes" we are offering something better than a
guarantee. If you signup for the series and pay $35.00 you can attend the class
every time it is offered within the next 12 months for nothing. Given our
current schedule, this class will probably be offered 2 to 3 more times within a
year. When we offer the Intermediate classes we will make the same offer to
those who have taken the Bronze class. This is a very good deal for those who
want to stay within a graduated dance instruction program. It will give those in
the program a chance to keep taking the class each time it is offered. If this
concept works for us we may extend the time period past a year. This is a new
concept for us and we are hoping we can attract more dancers to the group
classes.
The only catch is that we will ask you to rotate partners on your own to
"assist" the new dancers just as you would during any social event.
Again...
1. Sign up this upcoming Bronze Waltz class for the full 4 weeks $35.00.
2. For the next 12 months you can repeat this class every time it is offered.
3. If you take the full Bronze or beginner class we will make the same offer to
you for the Intermediate classes.
4. Pay once and take the same series over and over again for a year!
Also on Wednesday 8-9pm - $10.00 per class or $35.00 for the 4 weeks.
Advanced Hustle Moves class. Not much technique only some real cool Hustle
moves. We will be teaching one Advanced pattern each week. We will finish each
hour with practice time to slow and moderate tempo Hustle music. We teach
Detroit style Hustle. (Three count, begins on the Slow or One beat, danced
mostly in a slot)
We will not be reviewing the series at the last class and will only offer
limited review each week. There will be four separate patterns taught during the
series. Each is very cool and each can stand alone. These are not the same that
we taught for the Intermediate series. Learn some or all four!

5721 Arrowhead Drive - Va. Beach - 23462 http://www.dancesportva.com/
Bring a partner or let us know, in advance, if you need help in locating
one.
Notice:
We do not require but encourage dancers to have a partner at our Group Series.
As we stress the lead, follow and connection techniques essential to social dancing we feel
having a partner will allow the student to progress more rapidly through the
classes. This is best learned with a partner. If you are having trouble finding a practice partner for a class please
contact us well in advance and we will try to help out.
For those who attended Previous Friday dances we hosted at "DanceSport"
we hope to have the same type of High Energy dance. Our music includes songs for
most styles of social dancing. The very large and excellent dance floor at "DanceSport"
was used to it's best last month when we had over 80 dancers present. To
experience the energy level generated by that number of dancers together is the
best possible way to experience social dancing.
The staff at "DanceSport" provides the refreshments. All is inclusive in the
reasonable $8.00 per person cover.

No matter what type of social dancing you enjoy, please continue to enjoy
dancing.
