June Class Schedule!

Posted on by Susie Buck

Welcome everyone and I hope you are enjoying a safe and fun Memorial Day Weekend.  It is time for several new June classes to start.  I have added a new class, Beginner III, which I have not had for several years.  Check that class out because it gives you new opportunities to learn different dances and steps.

Whatever strikes your fancy, please drop me a quick line at Susiebballroom@gmail.com or call me at 585-503-7087.  Remember, sometimes classes are canceled because people just want to “show up” the first night of class.

I am looking forward to seeing everyone out on the dance floor! Happy Dancing!
