Latin Dance Classes
From the laughter coming from the hall these last Tuesday nights it’s clear some people are having a wonderful time. Others are struggling with a new beat and still others spend a lot of time looking at their feet. But all in all everyone has got that basic Salsa step down and have been practicing their turns and flourishes. Perry, who is used to students with some dance background said, “This has been more challenging than other classes I’ve taught, but we are defiantly making progress.” With the popularity of television shows like “Dancing with the Stars”, more and more people are being exposed to all types of ballroom dance including Latin. Dancing regularly helps keep the body toned, aids in circulation and oxygenation; big words for great benefits. Movement is key to retaining flexibility and balance as we age. Lesley Oswald, River Rats president hopes that high school students in the area will join us as well as seniors. “It’s such a great opportunity for all ages to learn a new dance or come show us what they already know.” The dance party will cost $5.00 at the door for anyone not already a member of the class. Refreshments will available for a small donation. All proceeds from the dance classes and party go to covering the costs of the hall, the instructor and to insure the River Rats, a non-profit organization, continue to bring creative learning experiences to the community.
