Dear Friends, Students & Subscribers,
We have, after much consideration, and with great
regret, decided to retire from teaching Ballroom Dancing.
Beginning in 1962 and till now, It has been a
great ride!
We really appreciate
being allowed to participate in your dancing lives
While we will
no longer be conducting classes, we are not giving up our connection to the
Ballroom Dance Community.
We will continue to maintain the Ballroom Chicago web site and will also keep
sending out the weekly updates to all our subscribers.
We have missed and will miss seeing all of our students and friends.
Hopefully, we might see you on the dance floor sometime.

Dear Friends, Students & Subscribers,
We have, after much consideration, and with great
regret, decided to retire from teaching Ballroom Dancing.
I will be 82
on March 29. It seems to be good time to stop while we are still able to dance
and teach, rather
than waiting until we are
no longer able.
Beginning in 1962 and till now, It has been a
great ride!
We really appreciate
being allowed to participate in your dancing lives
While we will
no longer be conducting classes, we are not giving up our connection to the
Ballroom Dance Community.
I will continue to maintain the Ballroom Chicago web site and will also keep
sending out the weekly updates to all our subscribers.
We have missed and will miss seeing all of our students and friends.
Hopefully, we might see you on the dance floor sometime.
