AIFD newsletter for January 26, 2024: Misi DJs, January Birthdays!!!

This Friday, Jan 26, at AIFD:

This Friday at dancing we'll celebrate January Birthdays and Anniversaries.

Our DJ this week will be Misi Tsurikov.

Teaching throughout January:

Teaching: Stephanie Anderson and John Scales will guide us over the final hills and through the woods of Odina Jonsson’s Bakmes to review the partnering skills and turning steps we’ve worked on this month. Franklin Houston will start at 7PM with his Bulgarian dance tour, warming up with Pravo, Četvorno, and Eleno Mome, followed by some easy Kopanica variations and a teaching of Krivo Slivniško.

Have something you'd like to see in the AIFD newsletter? Do you have an upcoming event you'd like to announce, a poem you'd like to share, a dance experience you think other dancers would enjoy? Feel free to submit it to the AIFD newsletter and we'll make it fit.
