FunDancers on Mothers Day (May 8)

FunDancers will dance on May 8 (Mothers Day) at the regular time:
    5:15 to 7:35 pm - January Beginners
    7 to 9 pm - Experienced
    9:15 pm until - afterparty at Chuy's

Because it's Mudder's Day, the evening will feature songs about ... who else? ... Mudder.

We invite January Beginners to dance the first two tips (until about 7:35 pm) with the Experienced group. January Beginners are dancing amazingly well! Even if they temporarily forget a move (as we all do on occasion), they know how to look for an empty spot and jump into it. Just like the Energizer Bunny, they keep going and going and going.

It's fun to visit neighboring clubs. January beginners will feel especially welcome at New Braunfels Squares on Fridays because their beginner group is at almost the same level as ours. Wheel N Deals club in San Marcos dances on Thursdays and they warmly welcome newer dancers. Come 'N Take It in Gonzales dances on Mondays. Their beginner group started a few months after ours, which means it's a great way to review what you shoulda learned two months ago. :) Gonzales will have a beginner Halfway Dance party (FREE admission) on Monday May 16.

Check out DanceWithSam.com ... which by the way is run by FunDancers Sam and Sue ... for more details about clubs and events in the region.

The Beginner Progress chart at FunDancers.org is up to date. It's usually updated on Sunday night, a scant few hours after each call is taught, usually before your sweet little head hits your soft silky pillow and you drift off into slumber land. If you ever wake up in the middle of the night worrying about a new call you just learned, you can review it online then get more beauty sleep. We are NOT responsible for the army of admirers you're sure to attract after getting so much beauty sleep.

We're Bloggers! FunDancers.org now has a blog. In the top right block ("Upcoming Special Events") click on "Newsroom". Whose gonna be the first subscriber to the RSS feed? :) Right now the blog contains only these weekly missives. We can easily add other content such as photos, poems you wrote, essays in loving tribute to your club caller, pictures your kids drew with crayons, etc. Send it and I'll post it. You can also comment on any item. Blog away!

In June we will gradually blend the two groups (Beginners and Experienced) into one. We want to keep the Experienced dancers well entertained but we also want the Beginners to have a great time. One thing's certain: the best way to become an excellent dancer is to dance with other excellent dancers. FunDancers is definitely the right place to dance with excellence because our Experienced dancers are the cream of the crop (as are our Beginners). Our club is richly blessed with nice friendly warm welcoming people at all experience levels. We'll have a lot of fun when the two groups merge in June.

Stay tuned for various special events throughout the summer.

It takes a passel of people to produce a proper party each week ... and we appreciate one and all! Each person adds something special to the overall mix. Thanks so much for making FunDancers a great place to gather on Sunday evenings for Fun, Fitness and Friendship!
