Tuesday FitSteps Final Session

Due to insufficient numbers we will be dropping FitSteps from our schedule on Tuesday evenings (Wednesday mornings unaffected).

Instead Denise and Antony have opened up their diaries for additional private lessons.

This Tuesday (31st October) will be our final session.

New Friday Tea Dance

Following discussions with students we have decided to switch the Friday afternoon class to an additional Tea Dance.

Starting Friday 3rd November this session will then become a weekly Tea Dance, from 1.30pm-3.30pm and costs £5pp.

Erin Boag Ballroom Workshops

On Sunday 12th November Erin Boag will be joining us to provide an afternoon of Ballroom dance workshops.

There will be four workshops, one for each dance, starting from 2pm until 6pm. You can book each workshop for £20pp, or to book for more than one we offer discounted options.

Please note all workshops are over 2/3rds booked and the Waltz is FULLY BOOKED!

Upcoming

Instagram…I earn To Dance

Ok I knew I needed to order some new T-Shirts, but I hadn’t realised quite how bad it had got until a new student asked whether I had deliberately put ‘I earn To Dance’ on my top!

Friday Classes New Location

A reminder that our Friday afternoon classes are no longer run by the RBWM at Braywick Leisure Centre. We have decided to continue them for you at our studio in Burnham.

The costs will fall in line with all our other classes and so will be £8.50 per person, £38.25 for a block of 5 sessions (valid for 3 months) or £68 for a block of 10 sessions (valid for 6 months).

The class runs from 2pm-3.45pm, includes free tea & coffee (bring your own mugs) and free parking.

Summer Dinner & Dance

Our Summer Dinner & Dance on Friday 11th August is now FULLY BOOKED.

We are offering a waiting list which you can apply to below, or contact us.

Waltz Course Final Extension

After discussing with existing participants the Monday night Waltz course will be extended for a final 4 weeks, to take us up to 4th September.

We are moving into more silver level steps and may even throw in a few gold for good measure!

This 4 week extension costs £30pp and is available to book now. Students of Improver 2 level and above are welcome to join this final extension.

We will have a new Salsa course starting from Monday 11th September.

Foxtrot Course

Our next One Dance Course will be Foxtrot, starting from Wednesday 6th September and is available to book now.

Places cost £45pp

Monday Waltz course extension TBC from Monday 14th August.

Autumn Price Increase

In case you missed our latest news announcement we will be implementing a small price increase from Friday 1st September.

We have kept prices steady since January 2020, even through Covid, but unfortunately we have come to the point of needing to increase prices, as our own costs have risen.

You can take advantage of the current prices until Thursday 31st August and you are welcome to stack packages/sessions.

Change to Socials

With the addition of dinner & dances, afternoon teas, and various other special events we now have a larger number of social events throughout the year.

Therefore we have the following Friday social events to the end of the year:

• Friday 28th April – our Anniversary Party
• Friday 5th May – our Spring Dinner & Dance
• Friday 30th June
• Friday 11th August – Summer Dinner & Dance
• Friday 27th October – Halloween Social
• Friday 3rd November – Winter Dinner & Dance
• Friday 8th December – Christmas Party

The workshops before the removed socials will be rescheduled accordingly.
