Beginners Dance

By admin | Published November 2, 2011

Hey everyone!!

Time has come for the first official dance this year, the Beginners Dance. The program is especially for beginners, and we will have gone through all of the dances in our classes. If you are still not sure whether to come or not, we will have a walkthrough in the afternoon of the same day where everyone unsure about the dances can come and dance them. The afterparty is at Ulrike’s flat from the end of the dance until the early morning. There will be a group of people walking together, so if you don’t know where it is, just follow someone who knows the way. Below are the details for the Dance itself as well as the walkthrough. Hope to see you all there!!
