From Susan
Great dancing tonight!
I want to reiterate that if you need to be absent from class to come early the following week. We can walk through the new moves before class. Some of the moves need a whole square so we will do a walk through when there is a whole square or we will wait until class. More walk throughs help everyone.
Have a great week!
Happy dancing,
Susan
