A BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Diane & Steve, Staci and Brian, and Cori & David for completing the 4 month course and graduating into the Advanced level. It has been a wonderful 4 months, my friends! We're looking forward to the summer class and event adventures with you all!

Great job WDHS Jazz Ensemble and Hal Edwards Orchestra today! We very much enjoyed your performance and had a great time dancing. Well done and we look forward to next year!

If anyone has no plans tonight, this could be a fun event for you. Just got the notice on it.

Today we wrapped up class and the end of the month with a couple visitors as well. We had the pleasure of Cori and David returning and also welcoming Justin in observing the class. In class we learned a couple new figures (wrist push spin, and the arm slide) and recapped everything else. We also finished learning the shim sham routine and it's all about repetition now. We can't wait for next month which will bring two Big band dances and we'll also start learning swing outs!

All those who showed up to class yesterday despite the cold weather and slippery roads definitely have our appreciation and respect! Congratulations on not only being tougher than the weather but also for making it 75% through the 4-month course. We would like to welcome you into Intermediate II!
See you Wed Jan 7th for an introduction to swing outs!
