November News!!

Hi everyone!

Just popping in to remind all of our Sussex dancers that unfortunately I have decided to close down the Tuesday morning beginner class at the Newell centre for the time being. The class doesn't fit in very well with my late night class on a Monday and has proven just a little bit too ambitious - energy wise!

My apologies to all the lovely people that came along to try out the class, I have emailed you all personally and hope that you will be able to transfer to one of my other beginner classes. All details are on www.thekatz.co.uk.

In other news...

THIS COMING WEEKEND AT THE VIKING!!

This coming weekend at the Viking we have a special party going on - it starts on Friday evening and carries on until the early hours of Monday! Therefore there will be no regular line dance lesson on saturday afternoon - instead the lessons will be on Saturday and Sunday mornings for experienced line dancers and will run from 11 - 1 p.m.

Regular line dancers are allowed into the classes free of charge, but if you want to stay on for the social dancing that follows during the afternoon - there is a charge of £10 each. For more details on this special November party weekend -please go to www.theviking.co.uk.

I have a number of party nights coming up for the Sussex crew too - look out for tickets and information in your classes - or on facebook...!

That's all from me for now - looking forward to seeing you on a dance floor sometime very soon!

Enjoy you Sunday!
