Dear dancers,
Happy New Year to you all!!!
I hope you all had a peaceful Christmas and haven't eaten too much? (actually I can't say that, as I obviously HAVE eaten too much and am now paying the price having put on half a stone!)....so let's move on from this subject and get you all up to date with the goings-on in the Katz Modern Line Dance Club....
Classes are back from Wednesday 4th January in Six Villages - Westergate
Friday 6th January in The Newell Centre - Chichester
and
Monday 9th January in Oak Lodge - West Wickham, Kent.....yes you did read that correctly!
The Monday class is no longer going to move to Azelia Hall as the trustess have decided that dancers are not the kind of groups they want using the hall as we are damaging the floor...!
But that's ok with me, as I was already missing Oak Lodge, and am happy to return there once more with a promise from Colin that the floor will be polished for us to use every week from now on, hopefully solving our issue of 'sticky jelly floor' that occasionally hinders the dancers at the back of the hall....(Monday is Jelly day for the children, and the cleaners don't always manage to get the floor as they should!)......
Oak Lodge is a lovely bright hall, and the dancers that use it are lovely and bright and bubbly too - a perfect match - so that's where we will stay for the foreseeable future...!
Please note that there is a small increase for Monday's class of 50p each.....starting from Jan 9th........
Other news...
ANDY & JULIE'S NEW YEAR'S BASH!!!
This party will take place in Six Villages Sports Centre on Saturday 14th January from 7 - 11.30 p.m. for only £5 each......there is no need to pre purchase tickets, but please do let me know if you are intending to come along that night so I can keep a little eye on numbers......
The party is NOT going to be in the hall the classes run in, but will be in the HUGE SPORTS HALL instead just past reception........we can't wait to try out this new hall and to give you all the space you need to dance the night away...from a dancer's point of view I love having the luxury of lots of dancefloor to do my own thing in, and I'm sure you will all love it too!
Please do bring your line dance friends along to our party and help Andy and I bring the New Year in with a BANG!!! (albeit a fortnight late!)....under 18's are only £2 each....please bring along your own drinks and nibbles for your OWN table if you wish.....
BOURNEMOUTH!!!! IT'S ALMOST HERE!!!
Well, can you believe that it's almost time for our Annual Club Holiday once again!!? Doesn't time fly!?
A big thank you to those that have already paid your balance, and for those of you that have yet to pay please note that the balance is due by the end of January.....if you can pay it directly into my bank account that would be great! I will email you with the bank details once more, if you would prefer to pay by cheque then that's fine too of course, you will find my address on the tear off slip at the back of your booking form...if you need a copy of this I can email it across for you too.
I would just like to finish this email with a big THANK YOU to everyone for all your lovely Christmas cards and gifts, Andy and I are very touched that you go to so much trouble to remember us...my house is FULL of Cards, and it's just lovely...
I look forward to seeing you all in a class again very soon!!
Take care peeps!

Christmas Party Week in The Katz Line Dance Club!
Seasons Greeting to all my lovely dancers!
This week is our Christmas Party Week - and we will be celebrating the season in style in all of the classes AND Holding a HUGE Christmas party on Saturday night in Chichester too!!
But let's start at the beginning with the first of our Christmas Parties, and that is:
Monday 12th December and will be held in Azelia Hall (more on this later), Beckenham! (please note that there 'may' be some gas works in the area in the local roads)....
Doors open at 7 p.m. and we party on til 10.15! Only £5 each!
Please bring your own drinks for your own table - and a plate to 'share' with the class for our buffet table. Don't worry if you haven't yet decided what to bring - a small dinner plate of tasty nibbles, either savory or sweet will be perfect! I will supply the plates and cutlery - the music and the dancing - and prizes for the Christmas Raffle!!
This will be our last class until January 9th (due to the Bank Holiday).
We are doing our 'trial run' in Azelia for three weeks in January 2012 to see if you prefer dancing there as it has a larger, wooden dance floor and a stage..........on the last session in Azelia (23rd January we will have a vote to see if you would like to stay in Azelia permanently or return to Oak Lodge - the majority wins!).
Please do support me as I try out this new hall - your feedback and opinions are very very important to me - and I have listened to your concerns over Oak Lodge and understand them, hence the trial in a different hall.
However, Oak Lodge are very sorry to lose us and really would like us to come back - they are holding the booking space for us until after the vote takes place (aren't they lovely!) and have promised to look into our minor disappointments if we do want to return.
I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow girlies!! And have a lot of fun in store for you all - hehe...or should I say - Ho Ho Ho!!
WEDNESDAY CLASS - SIX VILLAGES - 14th December...
For tonights class I will be bringing along lots of lovely Mince Pies and Cakes!!! Please feel free to bring along some more nibbles if you wish and your own drinks........I have in store a Class with a Festive Feel!!!
