*************************************************
2) New Class PRICING for Dance Conditioning classes - $5 if you're taking both classes!
Many of you have been attending Dance Conditioning as a "warm up" for the class following it, which makes your class night rather expensive.
Now, If you take Dance Conditioning back to back with any other class, it's half price! That means $5 for Dance Conditioning, or the new Pilates Yoga Combo class, if you're taking the class after it as well.
If you have a class card, each Dance Conditioning class will be marked as 1/2 a class, so you also get 1/2 off.
If you're just dropping in for Dance Conditioning or Pilates Yoga Combo without taking the second class, the price remains $10.

5) Shoebox Clothing Swap - Just in Time for Spring Cleaning!
Sunday March 15th, 11am-1pm
All last month a big topic of discussion in classes was re-organization, getting rid of things, and starting fresh - which means folks around here have got the Spring Cleaning bug, big time! The Beginning Bellydance class proposed a clothing swap, which we think sounds like a blast.
Sunday, March 15th, show up with all the clothes* you are ready to part with, and be prepared to take a few new things home! But, you wont have to bring home anything you dont want - Everything that doesn't get claimed will be donated to Out of the Closet Thriftstore.
Feel free to bring snacks or juice to share. We'll put on music, spread out on the floor, and find some new treasures.
*Not limited to clothes! Feel free to bring jewelry, makeup, costuming items, housewares, anything you're ready to part with or swap for.
