4:15 - 4:30 pm: Break/Snacks/Q&A
4:30 - 5:30 pm: Instruction
REGISTRATION:
1) Attendance is limited and we will try to maintain a good role balance (so Followers, it's in your best interest to find a Leader to sign up with you, but not required!) so I can provide you with the ideal learning environment.
2) Pre-register here: https://forms.gle/4nEgxAB1VwRjJzdZ6. Filling out the form does not guarantee you a spot; you will receive either a confirmation (along with a FAQs document) or notification that the class is full and be put on a Wait List.
3) Sorry, no walk-ins.
PAYMENT:
Payment options/deadline will be sent via email along with your confirmation. Pre-payment is required to spend less time checking in.😉 If you can't make it for any reason, you'll receive a full refund.
FOOTWEAR (esp. for Followers):
Wear shoes that do not grip (like running/hiking shoes do) and instead, allow you to easily pivot on the balls of your feet. No flip flops/mules or any shoes in which your heel is not secure. A little bit of a heel is okay; you need to be able to walk naturally, striking the heel and rolling through the foot. You must wear shoes, no bare/socked feet; no exceptions!
FRAGRANCE POLICY:
Please refrain from wearing scented products like perfume, cologne, body spray, etc. (deodorant is fine and encouraged!) as I am highly allergic. They are a chemical irritant to my system, even pleasant smelling scents, and either you or I will have to leave the room so I can breathe, and I'm the teacher so it will be you!
Then, stay for TDS's evening lesson and dance (separate admission) starting at 6 pm!
Any questions, let us know ~
