And also from Mike -  I've had a number of requests for something 'non' dance-y yet not so 'INSANE' as my other classes.  So this one is low impact and right in the middle.  Ages 15yrs+ for this class.  Prerequisites are:

you must be able to get up and down off of the floor with very little or no problem

must not be nursing an injury

need to bring your own dumbbells -3 sets (probably 5-12lbs depending.  They run at about $1/lb at WalMart or Canadian Tire)

February's Dancer of the Month:

 

February's Dancer of the Month is Lauryn MacKenzie:

Her birthday is February 5th - happy birthday Lauryn!

Lauryn favourite animals are Manatees and she would love to travel to England.

Lauryn is especially good and remember song lyrics and she thinks she might want to be a teacher.

Laruyn's favourite snack is Bean Dip and music is the one thing that makes her feel excited.

Laruyn loves to eat at Magpies and if she could buy ANYTHING in the world it would be Manatee :-)

Thanks for being our Dancer of the Month Lauryn!

A quick reminder:

There will be no dance for the Family Day Long Weekend.  The studio will be closed on Monday February 9th.  


 

Thanks for reading and we'll see you soon!
