Dance News: CANCELLED TONIGHT THURSDAY ELKS
/THURSDAY, MARCH 12th, 2020!!!!!
Hello to our Dance Family!
NEW STUFF!
IMPORTANT UPDATE: TONIGHT... CANCELLED WESTCHESTER ELKS CLASSES & DANCES. ALSO CANCELLED THROUGH MARCH.
After much thought, discussion, resourcing info, communicating with other dance teachers, event directors, & venue management etc... Phil & I have decided to cancel our Thursday classes/ dance starting tonight, for the rest of March. Then re-evaluate. Heartbreaking, but we feel it is the right decision, with growing concerns about the Coronavirus. We have a responsibility to our community. As much as we have financial concerns... as dance is our career... we believe health issues are the priority. Especially when lives are at stake. We want to do what we can to keep us all healthy. We have so many older people in our dance family who are more vulnerable with other health issues too; we do not want to pass the virus along to them either. Also we have been thoughtful about our helpers/support peeps (door sign in, set up, clean up etc.). Many dance conventions/ events are being cancelled. Here is a partial list: High Desert Dance Classic, Seattle Swing, All Star Swing, Boston Tea Party, & Chicago Classic etc. Many local dances & classes are also being cancelled. We are taking it one day at a time. Making changes as updates come in. Very sad & scary times. Let's please help ourselves & each other, however we can. Sending love & healing in all directions. XOXO.
Also Phil's Sunday monthly workshop has been cancelled for March.
PLEASE SHARE THE WORD ABOUT ALL CANCELLATIONS. Thanks.
Mindia :-))) ..... & Phil
