Dance Party
 
Summer Road Trip  
Summer Road Trip  

You know what I'm thankful for? That I have a wonderful, healthy activity that lets me meet fantastic people like you.

Let's celebrate all that we have to be thankful for. The Thanks-to-Dance Dance Party is a rocking good time filled with family and food inspired music - 'tis the season of eatin'! And there is a bizzarrely large number of great songs that (either seriously or humorously) honor both food and family (Mas Queso anyone?).

So, what are we going to dance to all this great music? Lots of stuff. Hustle, Cha Cha, Tango, Salsa, Carolina Shag, Bachata, Swing, and ..... Quickstep. Yup - quickstep. If you're going to eat your way through the holidays, it's time to start the exercize too!

You don't need to know any Quickstep - we will teach it to you. It's what we do.Come out at the beginning of the dance for a lesson that will make this somewhat challenging dance beginner friendly. If you're new to this stuff, make sure to get there early to master the foundations.

If you feel like it, embrace the theme by bringing some food to share.

Sound like fun? Sign up today! Please register by Saturday noon by online at SapphireBallroom.Square.site or by emailing us and paying at the event - just reply to this email with your name and the names of anyone you plan to bring.

Want to help make these events a success? Bring your friends, bring a snack to share, share the Facebook event, like our Instagram posts. It all helps!

Remember, you can keep up with our news on Facebook at SapphireBallroom and Instagram at SapphireBallroom.

Sapphire's group classes and workshops are always small, low stress, and fun. They are a great way to meet other people who have also decided to learn to dance, as well as get to know our teaching staff. It doesn't take any long-term investment to get started, no special clothing or shoes - just something comfortable to wear and a sense of adventure. So, take the plunge and try it out.

All classes (in person or online) require registration by noon the day the class starts. We are happy to add late-comers if we can, but classes may be cancelled or rescheduled if registration is low.

Five ways to register, just choose one and we'll take care of the rest:
1 - reply to this email info@sapphiredance.com;
2 - register and pay at the same time at our online store at SapphireBallroom.square.site;
3 - talk to your favorite Sapphire Staff member;
4 - give us a ring at 540-382-8782;
5 - Blacksburg Group classes are best registered through the Blacksburg Community Center webpage.

Thanks for reading; we hope you found something you liked. Until we see you again, happy dancing!
