Ballroom, Latin, Disco/Hustle and Swing classes have begun for 5th graders and up on Saturday mornings at 10:30am and at 5:00pm on Wednesday evenings after school at the Chevy Chase Ballroom . Those interested in enrolling in either class may email TerryChasteen@hotmail.com. Pre-registration is required at the first class or online at www.PleaseDanceWithMe.com/kids.htm. Since a different dance will be taught each week, enrollment may take place after the sessions have begun . PLUS!! "Mad Hot Ballroom" will begin as an after school activity at one of the close-in DC or Md middle schools on Mondays from either 3:30 or 4:30pm to 5:00pm or 6:00pm. Starting date and exact location to-be-announced. Email TerryChasteen@hotmail.com if you would like us to consider your school for this weekly after-school event. AND IN FALLS CHURCH, VA The Promenade Dancing class will resume once again in Virginia for middle-schoolers in Fairfax County, as well as from other areas once the local kids have had a chance to enroll. It will include 8 sessions between December , 2005 and April of 2006.

For anyone interested in enrolling, it is suggested to do so with a dance partner, though no one will remain with the same partner throughout the series. Partners will change routinely each week, so it's only necessary to have an equal number of boys and girls.

Gay DanceSPORT Saturday mornings & early afternoons New and more advanced LGBT Latin and Ballroom & Swing classes in DC on Saturday mornings and early afternoons. Geared toward more advanced beginner & intermediate dancers going to Gay Games, Chicago, 2006 & the 1st World OutGames, Montreal, 2006, these classes are both for those competing in any of the 3 dance styles that will be offered for the first time in 2006 or merely for social dancing as spectators. As a spectator you'll definitely want to dance all 3 styles with the many other dancers from around the world during the many social events that are sure to be scheduled in Chicago and Montreal. Absolutely no partner or previous dance experience necessary to attend. Two levels of teachers will be made available at the same time as the level of dancing progresses. Also, one need not necessarily be planning to attend in 2006 to participate in these classes.

is necessary, so don’t hesitate. Most of those competing will be
in the beginner levels and will not be competing against the more advanced
dancers. The objective is to encourage participation, regardless of your
level. Contact Ralph Bradley at EarlyRide@msn.com if interested in possibly
attending. Location: the Chevy Chase Ballroom, 5207 Wisc Ave., NW. Located above Paul's Liquor one block South of the Jennifer Street exit of the Friendship Heights red line Metro.
