Hi Everyone
 
A Very Happy New Year to you!
 
What a great start to the new term, lots of lovely new beginners a quite a few people come back to start again, you are all very welcome to our two super groups of Lindy Hoppers. The new course is a great time to come back if you have dropped out for a while, the beginners class is basic Six count with your building blocks for dancing and our intermediate group is slowed down to help improvers come up and cope with the level.
 
 Our New Venue at Newmarket for a monthly Dance night has taken off really well attracting dancers from all over. We had the ever entertaining Earl Jackson last week who obviously went down a storm! This will be the first Friday of the month some will be record hops others with smaller bands.

 Now you really MUST NOT MISS THIS BAND we have at Risby on Friday 22nd January, they are one of the most professional top hot rocking Rhythm & Blues Bands on the circuit, fantastic to watch brilliantly entertaining: The Awesome "KING PLEASURE & THE BISCUIT BOYS" they will certainly will brush away the winter blues! Still time to get tickets at the advance price of £14 as on the door they will be £17 we do supply free soft drinks & tea/coffee at Risby & you are welcome to bring your own booze & picnics! PLEASE do not think that you have to be able to dance to come to dance nights you have entered a scene & there is great enjoyment in watching both bands & dancers! Please remember if you don't support live music events we will have to stop booking these fantastic live bands. So many bands we have booked over the years just do not exist anymore due to lack of support. To us live music is what we dance for, so please come & see for yourself.

 We plan to arrange some Sunday workshops during the next few months, definitely "The shim Sham & Jitterbug Stroll" will be one & definitely at least one 1920's Partner Charleston our debate is which venue (i.e Steeple Morden/Risby) to hold them in so any feed back on this would be appreciated?

 Well that's my Waffle, do join us soon!
