Class Schedule

All classes are now finished.

With the exception of Salsa, all classes have now ended for the 2011-2012 school year. Now is the time to review what you’ve learned and receive feedback from your teachers through Pin Tests. The Pin Tests are an opportunity for you to be evaluated on an individual basis by your teacher. The tests will be held on the following days:
Monday March 26th 6:30-8:00pm: Newcomer, Advanced Latin
Tuesday March 27th 8:00-9:00pm: Newcomer, Advanced Standard
Wednesday March 28th: 6:30-8:00pm: Newcomer, Bronze

If you intend to advance to the next level of classes in the following school year, you must take the Pin Test. While it may be a good idea to practice with a partner ahead of time, if you don’t have a partner, please come to the Pin Test timeslot anyways and an exec will arrange a solution for you.

Warm regards,
