PSA

Now that Procrastinator's is done for this year, this site may go dormant. And maybe not. I don't know, it depends on what else changes in the next month. I expect rather a lot of change for me.

Dancers Revolt is still off for 2009. I will see about getting it around for 2010...

I still have to move from this house, and I still don't know where I'm going. I want to stay here in Pentamer. Life is full of want.

As RedGreen would say: Keep your stick on the ice.

Update on dancing.

I will likely post the Ball Set List soon. [I want to say "presently", but why use the more expensive word when it just takes up a bit more space?] I realize gentles likely want to know NOW. My deepest apologies.

I should like to confirm everything one last time with my teachers. There is a amusing dance I had not known of before -- vastly perfect for this event. :>

Also, in case you hadn't been to the event website, ball tokens will be awarded in five categories: most flirtatious, silly, decorative, flamboyant, and creative.

Dancing at Procrastinator's Ball

Greetings! I am running the dance classes and ball for Procrastinator's Ball next month.

The teachers thus far are Alina of Foxwood, Gwommy Anpurpaidh, Aaron Drummond, and Gwenllyen the Minstrel. Classes will be English Country and Italian Renaissance; once the class list is set -- probably tomorrow -- I will post that here.

A belly dancing class will run in the afternoon.

The ball sets will also be listed -- and we have live music.

Classes will run 10-5 in the hall, one per hour. The ball is 8-11pm.

Do feel free to send this along to any event/dance lists you are on, kind gentles, and to let me know about errors you see. Many thanks!
