Good morning, Dancers!

Social Dance Parties!
We know it can be hard to find places to just go out and dance in Berkeley, so we want to help! We are going to start offering monthly Social Dance Parties! However, since these parties are for you, we need your help! Please fill out this survey so we can make these parties exactly what you are looking for! http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/8BDQHFL

Berkeley Classic!
Berkeley Classic is this weekend! It's all day Saturday the 16th in the RSF Fieldhouse! Come out for an amazing day of dancing! Doors open at 8 am, event runs until 11 pm. Don't miss out on watching some of the best dancers in country. This year our professional showcase will be a 5-Dance Latin Showcase by Yulia Kuznetsova & Andrey Tarasov! Check them out on YouTube to see what is in store. Tickets are $10 for Students, and anyone who purchases pre-sale tickets (ends Wednesday!), and $15 at the door for non-students. Email Compe...@ucbd.org to purchase tickets.  More information here.

In the meantime, come out tonight and learn to Salsa If you missed last week, don't worry! We will catch you up to speed tonight!
Social Classes!
Starting this semester, all of Berkeley Ballroom's Monday night Series Classes will be FREE! These classes will begin Monday, February 4th! One week from today! Each series will be 3 to 4 weeks, and are open to those with experience and those with no experience  While they are designed to be progressive classes, new students are welcome to come (e.g. if you miss the first and second class, please still come to the 3rd or 4th one! We will have assistants there to catch you up!).

SDS
SDS is for those looking to concentrate more on the technical and performance aspect of the 8 international-style ballroom dances, which include Waltz, Foxtrot, Tango, Quickstep, Cha Cha, Rumba, Samba, and Jive. These classes are also designed for those of you who are interested in joining our team!  Each week the class will focus on one standard dance (Waltz, Quickstep, Foxtrot,  and Tango)  and on Latin dance (Cha Cha, Rumba, Samba, and Jive).  These classes are deigned for both those with experience and those with none! This week we will be covering: Waltz & Cha Cha!
Wheeler Lobby (near Ticket Box!)
Tuesdays 7 pm to 9 pm
$10 per class for drop-in.
We also have packages available. For more information, click here.

Due to low attendance, Berkeley Ballroom will be canceling our weekly drop-in social classes and focusing on series classes. If you would like to see drop-in social classes in the future, please email our Social Coordinator, Alvin, at soc...@ucbd.org and let him know. If there is enough interest we will most certainly bring them back! *Drop-in social classes would consist of a different dance taught each week, at the introductory level (generally 3 to 4 moves would be covered per dance per week).

Have an event coming up? Hire UCBD to come and teach a lesson for you! Perfect for weddings and company parties! Email Soc...@ucbd.org for more information or check out our website here

Be sure to check us out on Facebook and Twitter!

Hope to see you on the dance floor this week!

Best,
