What's Happening

WE NEED YOU - Easy, fun and quick

How would you like to be one of the first friendly faces that people see when they enter the front door at our monthly dance? Say "Hi," reserve a dance, make sure other dancers feel welcome…sound like fun? YES! All you will need to do is work ½ shift (half an hour). To help the line move quickly, ask the person in line if they are a Next Gen (or other club) member or not. Let them know the price, $7 for Next Gen (or other club) members, $12 if not. Then once they’ve paid, stamp their hand. That’s it! Sounds simple, right? So, email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it to let us know that you can help. See you at the dance!

Joeminars!

Next Generation Swing Dance Club is sponsoring four two-hour seminars with Joe Ho. This is a great opportunity to get instruction on dance technique from one of the Bay Area's (and national) favorite WCS leaders. For those of you who are not familiar with Joe, he has been a long time member of Next Generation and has won many national competitions. However, one of the things that makes Joe special is that he dances with followers of all levels and make them all feel that they are fabulous dancers.
