How Now Brown Bal

A big well done to everyone who popped into the Central Bar and Cafe last night to get their bal groove on! A massive thanks to the newer students for putting their faith into Barry and I and for branching out to a new venue and new class time and a huge thanks to the more experienced dancers for keeping the pace cracking and helping bring up to speed the newer students in the more advanced class.

Comments from both classes included; "was great to be able to spend time going over the first class again in the second class, this time with more experienced people who could help guide us through" and "dancing with some of the newer students helped me really think about what I was doing, and how it was effecting them. I think we all got something out of the class".

The smaller (but still ratio even) numbers meant that Barry and I had time to make individual comment and provide feedback to all students, even better (ok equally as good), students were able to provide feedback to Barry and I, helping the class move along in the right direction and at the right pace.

I remind you all that these classes (blues and bal) were a little bit of a gamble, we heard whispers in dark alleys that there was a need for more bal and blues to be taught, now is the time to come out of the shadows and put pen to paper (or the electronic equivalent) and write to your teachers to let them know if you want more/less/longer Tuesday night classes.

Classes from last night will NOT stream into tonight's Bal class, this means we won't be covering the moves from last night in our Bal block, so don't worry if you were not in class last night - you will not be left behind!

See you all tonight!!
