Update from New York!
Happy New Year to you all from the Big
apple!
Yes, here I am having a nourishing and inspiring time with Gabrielle and 45 other teachers. Going over some basics in teaching material and also studying 'Mirrors" work - that is the work of the ego and the many guises it shows up in, specifically in teaching but of course in all our relationships. I feel lucky, privileged, grateful etc.
The New Years Event was a wonderful success - one of the best ever. A slightly mad, 'random' open session that some people loved and some detested...... but engaged us all in the dance in a different way which I think is always beneficial!
I am doing my absolute best to get venues for classes confirmed for this term. Due to the floor in the auditorium being sanded and workshops in Cluny we will be moving about - I am booking classes and SYP as and where I can so the usual rhythm will be a bit irregular as I prioritise dancing over consistency! This will actually be a theme for a while as Bettina will take a break from teaching to have her baby and I am away at times. I will be inviting some more guest teachers to come cover which is a great opportunity for everyone to expand and adapt. From experience, class numbers often drop when the regular rhythm is broken. I do hope that you can be patient with these changes, make a note of the changes and check the calendar on my website to keep informed of when and where 5R dancing is happening, thank you.
I am needing to look at prices for classes this year and will do this with Bettina when we are on the same landmass! We need to increase them inline with all costs being increased. A sliding scale will continue to be available and some exchanges as well; whether that is joining the team of angels on the door who take care of the space or elsewhere. I always hope to include everyone , whatever their financial situation, as long as all our needs can get met so keep in touch please.
In the meantime please note:

with love
