1. THIS WEEK: WNH is Closed! Field Trip to Cat's Corner! Happy Thanksgiving!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's Thanksgiving week and we're closed; however, as each year, we'll take that opportunity to have a field trip to Cat's Corner in San Francisco! Cat's Corner is a weekly venue happening each Wednesday in Savanna Jazz club in the Mission district, with a different live band each week. This week they'll feature Steve Lucky & The Rhumba Bums, as well as the Orange Red Dress-To-Impress Party. The WNHoppers will get a discounted entry -- we only have pay entry fee each. What a nice opportunity to dance just before this huge Thanksgiving meal! (if that's your plan)

Alas, this year we can't run a staff-organized carpool; however, you're very welcome to post to our FB event page and make ride-sharing plans. See you on Cat's Corner's dance floor!

Whether you have some experience already with this dance or you are an absolute beginner, you can gain more facility with the basics and learn some moves to faster and faster music in this series.
This series will start with the balboa basics, and quickly build up your balboa repertoire with paddles, come around, toss out, lollies, cross overs, slides, and show you how to mix them together in fun patterns.
