new: Nightclub on Wednesdays in
November Jill
Popovich will be teaching Nightclub in November. This dance is a favorite, especially among
the amorous. It provides the
opportunity to be creative and romantic with slow and stirring music. Jill, a former physical therapist and a
current Pilate’s instructor, can show you how the use of body mechanics will
make you look absolutely eloquent in this dance. As always, you can save registration
time by downloading
the form
for a monthly package or single lesson and having it ready at the door. |

new: Tips from Wikihow “Enjoy
dancing. Dancing is about release of inhibitions, letting your body melt into
the rhythm and feel its own way around the dance floor. Let go of all your
thoughts and worries and just be there for the music - your body will do a
lot of the work for you if you let go of self-consciousness – those steps
you’ve practiced will come a lot easier too.” |
