Dance and Movement

I saw this event but I am not able to go to it. Just found out that our beautiful Fanny Olaya and her partner, Fraylin Olivardes will be teaching with Ritmo Buffalo performing at the Canada Sbk Festival. What more do you need to know? Lots as I don't really know much at all. I just saw it online and if you can book a room I figured I should post and leave it as sorry I don't have more details. **FRI, SAT & SUN** Canada Sbk Festival Join us. Use the code FANNY26 FOR A DISCOUNT on your ticket. There's lots to consider so soon but for the quick... here are a few sites... ww.facebook.com/photo/? fbid=1467989705326837&set=pb.100063474643277.-2207520000 https://book.passkey.com/event/51196894/owner/6564/home https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/yyztc-sheraton-centre-toronto-hotel/overview/press/

**Caller: Kim Thompson** **Band: Full Moon Country Dance Orchestra** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

We'll start with social time over dinner/appetizers/drinks from 7:30-8:45pm. Then we'll get down with a great live hip-hop/R&B band, Lt. Dans New Legs ([LDNL](http://ldnl.net)). Attire: Dressy casual **Cover Charge**: $15.00 cash only (atm on site) **Parking**: public parking lot in front of club. *First time here?* [Lazy Chameleon](http://www.lazychameleon.com/) is in a shopping center off Sawmill Pkwy. They offer really good seafood dishes and typical bar food, too.

Let's meet at one of our fav clubs for drinks and socializing before the band plays at 9:00pm! SWAGG plays danceable pop and R&B favorites. *No cover*. *No food service* but you can order in or bring takeout. (I'll have a basket of snacks, too) **Parking** in lots surrounding the big red barn (property community center off Hayden Run). **Newbies**: If you want to invite a tagalong guest, add a plus one.
