Delicious friends,

    Lots of juicy dancing in February!

    Mark and I will continue Salsa 1.5 Thursday nights, 7 - 8 pm, and Sid Lewis will continue Tango Thursdays 8 -9 , at the Blue Sage in Poania.
 Salsa is drop-in, though we encourage you to come every week, and
Tango is a 3 class session.

February class dates are:  7, 21, and 28.
On Valentine's Day, join us at KVNF's Community Room, 7 - 9 pm, for a short and sweet, absolutely FREE, no-partner-needed variety dance!  Bring a few tunes to share, MP3 format.  Sweetness!

And the Beatles are coming our way!  Our monthly social dance, Swingin' at the Sage, will combine with the Blue Sage for a totally fun evening of all your favorite Beatles songs!  
Dr. Roberts, a Beatles tribute band, will play for us on Saturday, February 23rd.
Tickets:  only $8 in advance, $10 day of show!
And you say, if only I knew how to dance all kinds of cool Swing moves,
I'd be ready to combine it with my free Rock ' n Roll dancing at this event!
Never fear, for early that day we offer you...

Swing 1.5 dance Playshop! 
 Known as "East Coast", or 6 count Swing, we'll give you some new moves and sassy combinations, 
so you are ready to roll!  
Saturday February 23rd, 1 - 3:30, $15 - or 2 punches on your 
Delicious Dance punchcard, such a deal!

Note:  if you're brand new to Swing, let us give you a starter lesson before the Playshop; contact me and we'll make it happen.

Last but not least, visit La Puerta in Grand Junction on Friday 15th, to check out the dance scene there.  These folks have a weekly social dance in a big old dance hall, - join us there and meet them!  Interested?  Let us know.

    Happy dancing!  xox Margot and Mark
