Blog Time Monday!


We kicked off the Easter weekend right dancing the night away to the one and only Radio Ranch!   

It's always Good Friday when these guys play. 


The floor was packed with 40+ Dancers for the lessons and we started out by reviewing Rose Garden and then teaching Runaway to the Gary Allan's remake of the Classic Del Shannon hit  by the same name. For the Partner lesson we taught Set me Free which we found goes very nicely to Sugar and Pai by the Boots Band. 


It was great to see the couples out in force and filling the floor and also nice to see our new dance friends progressing so well. 

Besides getting to celebrate Barb's birthday and dance with the best Party Crowd around, we saw some new faces, made new friends and got a chance to catch up with some old friends and Cheeky Monkeys making for an all around great night.
