Howdy Balboa friends!
Our next Balboa on a Sunday Afternoon: Now Times Edition is
NEXT SUNDAY, July 16, once again in Studio 2 at the Dance
Complex in Central Square in Cambridge. This month, we're going
to split the time between an open practice and social dancing!
(a great form of practice, but obviously feel free to keep
practicing) And weather permitting, we hope to head over to
Viale afterwards for socializing, drinks, and snacks!
12:00-1:15pm — open practice (optional group warm-up &
exercise ~12:15-12:30)
1:15-3:15pm — music for social dancing
3:15-3:30pm -- clean up/clear out

Reminder that we continue to require masks (N95/KN95/KF94). Although the Federal COVID-19 public health emergency has ended, the actual COVID pandemic has not and we are still maintaining our precautions to provide a safer space for our whole community. Given that we are in an enclosed space in close contact with others while engaging in an often aerobic activity, we will continue to require masks while in the studio. If you have one, please bring/wear a mask (N95/KN95/KF94) when you arrive at check in. We'll have extras at check-in as always.Also, please avoid wearing/using fragranced products (like perfume/cologne or fragranced soap and hand sanitizers). Balboa is a close embrace dance and we want to minimize exposure for attendees who have fragrance allergies and sensitivities.
