We are looking forward to our June 28th Ball. This class is a chance to prepare and practice for the ball by reviewing Revolutionary dance etiquette and looking at minuet variations current at the time. This fun class is for beginners and for those who would like to brush up on their technique.
Not a convenient time for your schedule? No problem! The class will be recorded and you can review at your convenience.
