It feels like it has been forever since I have seen many of you. We have all been through a crazy year. I do hope that everyone made it through safely. I have had some big changes this year. The beautiful venue at Boulder Creek Ballroom is closed due to COVID-19. I started teaching at 501 Washington Street, Raleigh, NC 27605. It has a huge floor and is attractive inside. I am teaching private lessons there. I am still working on getting some classes started again. I will keep you all posted. I am also traveling to some student’s homes to teach, as well. Let me know if you are interested in that option. I do hope to see you very soon. Dance parties are on the horizon!
We need you! I am looking for 2 extra ladies for Thursday night at 7:00 pm for a new Beginner III Class! I also need 3 extra men for Monday night at 7:00 pm for a new Beginner I Class! If you are interested, please contact me at 585-503-7087 or email Susiebballroom@gmail.com Thanks!
