Mike will finish her performance class series.
8PM -
Jon & Erin will be teaching a beginner blues lesson.
Graham & Kerry will finish their intermediate lindy series.

We’ve lost Stuart to the Herrang demons until August, but don’t fret, ladies, he’ll be back. The Herrang demon will be gobling up a number of our members this July, so get ahold of Graham and Kerry for dances before they disappear, too!
