February 9, 2026, Playlist, Senin Canina (Turkey)- Dancing Mondays, Friday suspended until further notice.

[katia mucha]

Hi, dancers,

Periodic Table Day was February 8, so Tom, who has degrees in Chemistry, wrote some dance Instructors' names using elemental symbols. He included one dance as well, Senin Canina from Turkey.  This dance is actually two dances, a Halay and a Delile, that were combined by Bianca de Jong to fit the music.  The title means, "For My Soul." 

Dancing weekly on Mondays in February.

Friday dancing is suspended until further notice. The current estimate for repairs following the clubhouse flooding is two months, but dancers are actively looking for a temporary dance space. Please forward your suggestions to Rick at rick...@comcast.net.
