Happy 2022!
As most of you know, this year Lynda and I will be pursuing our competitive dance career together and so I made the decision to relocate to northern Virginia and join Elegant Dancing in Fairfax.
I will be taking a break from managing The Dance Spot, however I will still be offering classes and workshops (mostly on Mondays) at Charlottesville Ballroom.
Even though the studio is close, this page will remain open and I will be using it to promote all kinds of dance related events.
Thank you all for your support.
May 2022 be a year full of prosperity, happiness and health for all of us.
