Welcome to 2025 - are ye dancin'?

Well here we are, at the beginning of another year. 2025 already. As usual the last year seems to have galloped past and like a beginner dancing Postie's Jig, we've somehow ended up at the right place in the end but while most of it was great fun, a lot of it was confusing and occasionally painful!.
Truly it's been a difficult, or at the very least, a different, year for many, but the classes have always been full of fun and friendship giving us all a lift when people could get to them and something to really look forward to when they couldn't. Our various events have been challenging to organise and this looks to continue as venues have inevitably had to increase their prices as their own costs have risen, however it's emphasised how brilliant the Phoenix Club has been as a base for the group - it truly lives up to it's slogan as the friendliest club in Paphos and the more we can support it the better, they certainly have supported us over the last year. 
Hopefully everyone has enjoyed their festive season and are looking forward to the restart of both the dance classes next week.
Monday, 6th Jan is the first afternoon session, 2 pm until 4 pm, as usual. It's advertised as a 'beginner's and improver's' session but everyone is welcome whatever their dancing expertise - don't forget to bring something to drink, and don't worry if you think you've forgotten everything; I treat everyone gently on the first weeks back, it's amazing what a couple of weeks off does to us. It's a good time to start too, of course, so hopefully we'll have a few new people in the class - drag along those friends who keep on saying it sounds a lot of fun, but have never gotten around to joining us. The 'social' and dancing session restarts on Tuesday, 7th Jan, 6pm - 8 pm with bar service available as usual. Don't be scared of coming to this instead, if you can't make a day class - beginners can enjoy the evening too. You get a lot of help from the more experienced dancers so it can end up less challenging than the Monday class - in fact many people enjoy coming to both. See you soon Jx
