BRANCH OCCASIONAL CLASS: This class will be offered again in 2012, and will be taken by Ann Parkinson. The primary aim of the class is to encourage dancers to maintain and enhance their dancing skills. The emphasis will not be on learning new or difficult dances but, rather, on polishing formations and improving aspects of technique such as phrasing, covering, handing, deportment and teamwork. Step practice will be to the point and not excessive. These Monday, 6 - 7 pm, classes will be held at St Andrews Church Hall: 16, 30 April; 14, 28 May; 11, 25 June.
