The British summer was here, but as we know the weather over London is very changeable!
Embrace the unpredictability and grab your umbrella (great to protect you, both from rain and premature wrinkles caused by the sun!) as you head out the door to one of the sizzling events this weekend. With so many dance activities to choose from, with new moves to be learned and new friends to be made, what are you waiting for?

Your monthly West London party is back at The Aeronaut in Acton, with salsa lessons from 7.30 pm, a show at 9pm followed by social dancing through till midnight.  I was lucky enough to be there last month and even enjoyed watching the animations - a truly fun night out with dancers of all levels.

Many of the events and lessons mentioned in the newsletter give you access to member offers but since we are part of the wider A2Z.Events network, you can also access special offers across the country and even into other genres of dance.

For instance you can enjoy £5 off the quoted early bird price for the Ginga Boo Kizz festival in June that brings together international and UK based teachers and dancers in Milton Keynes.

With our binoculars on, next Friday sees El Grande in Kings Cross.

Actually I just spun through the events section for May and it really is quite significant.  If your teacher or party host hasn't listed, please feel free to give them a nudge.  It is free!
