We had a BLAST at Rock the Lake last night! We apologize to the amazing crowd for making you all cry 😉
If our performance inspired you to learn some ballroom, Latin, or swing dancing, come learn more about us at the org fair this Wednesday from 3-5pm, on the second floor of Norris!
Just a quick update on today's beginner lesson, we will be teaching Bachata and Cumbia instead of Jive!
