Dance with Joy- Aug. 26, 4pm to 6:30
The Partner Dance Eclectic playlist brings together expressive music inspired by waltz, blues, alternative tango, Latin, swing and world traditions—chosen not because it fits a particular dance, but because it invites beautiful partner dancing. Whether the music feels familiar or completely new, the goal is the same: listening deeply, connecting with your partner, and enjoying the journey together.

Since we had to change our newsletter sender address, our open rate has dropped by about 50%—mostly because many emails are being routed to Junk/Spam. The fastest way to fix this is simple: if you find our newsletter in your Junk/Spam folder, please move it to your inbox and mark it “Not Spam.”
As more people do this, email providers will start placing the newsletter back in inboxes and our open rates should return to normal. Even if you are currently receiving the newsletter, please take a moment to check your Junk/Spam folder (especially if you’ve used a different email address in the past)
