Socializing and creating great fun with everyone!
Beginner and Advanced dancers are all mixed together at our parties, so if you see someone you think is a good dancer, remember… we all started at the beginning and can remember what it was like!
It’s usual to dance one or two dances with one person, then invite someone else to dance.
Clothing is dressy or casual, your choice. Same with changing partners.
Dance critics okay? NOT so much….
Breath mints are provided and deodorant much appreciated, as well as going very light on perfumes and colognes.
