Why should you join ballroom?

  • Reason #1: Bump'n'grinding really just doesn't cut it at diplomatic functions or fancy balls.  Ballroom is a good life skill; you'll use it.

yes, this is our dance coach

CCB is back and better than ever! And at 7!

posted Jan 15, 2009 11:42 PM by Isa Janusz

Actually, it's the same CCB, but it's at 7! And goes to 10!

So if you are going, we are meeting this Saturday at the front gates at 6:30pm.
As always, bring $8 if a student, $12 otherwise, and bus/metro fare.

And good luck to everyone who can't go because they'll be at MAC!

Ballroom Overnight at DuShor!

posted Dec 2, 2008 10:35 PM by Isa Janusz

Hey, dancers! This Friday, Dec. 5th, we are going to DuShor Dance Studio (for those who have never been there, it's like CCB, just different place, obviously:P )

I'm still waiting to hear if they are having a social dance at DuShor that night, in which case we will attend, dance a bit, then everyone not on a college ballroom team leaves and we have the place to ourselves all night!

We are getting kicked out at 8am, unfortunately. As in have-to-be-out-the-door. Check back (or check your email) in the next couple days for leaving-Georgetown time. We will most likely have drivers so metro or bus will not be necessary.

Woo! Party! :P
