Save the Date: February 28th

so we’ve booked another date for Dance Dance Party Party! Hurrah! it’s a million years away but that gives you time to mark your calendars, cancel all travel plans, do some stretches, and make it to DDPP.

Saturday February 28th, 3:30 to 5:00 p.m.

We have the studio from 3:30 and we’ll *officially* start at quarter to 4.

Ask us questions if you got some! Song requests welcome.

in the meantime, in between time, we’re on the lookout for another space to have a dance party sooner — either on a Saturday or a Thursday/Friday evening. If you have a hot lead, drop me a line, in the comments or email me: crissycalhoun [at] gmail [dot] com. (does that even keep spammers at bay? i do not know.)

HNY from DDPP!

hey gals,

Happy New Year! when does one stop saying happy new year? maybe the 10th? i dunno, i am still excited about 2009. the ongoing search for a space to host our pending-weekday-evening sessions continues. And the next Saturday session will be announced soon — I promise! I can’t stand the wait either.

Also: check out this month’s issue of Best Health Magazine! There’s an article penned by superstar Tammy Sutherland about Dance Dance Party Party. Woot! Thanks for the coverage, Tammy.

November 22 Hit the Floor

Good Saturday morning to you ladies,

In two short weeks, it will be DDPP day! Oonagh and I are working on finding a place to try out a Thursday evening session but in the meantime, we’re rocking another Saturday.

Long awaited and anticipated, DDPP returns for a festival of excellent and oft-times hilarious dancing. We have the studio from 3:30 and we’ll *officially* start at quarter to 4. Woot!

saturday + ?

thanks to everyone who gave their two cents on DDPPing! the studio we normally have our Saturday sessions doesn’t have a weekday evening free so: we’ll book another Saturday and work on a new location for a Thurs/Fri evening session.

stay tuned!

DDPP: the reboot

hey gals!

Oonagh and I are trying to figure out if there’s a better time (better than Saturday afternoons) for DDPPing. We’ve had some low turnout the past few sessions and we would love to get more of you ladies out on the dance floor. Drop me a note (crissycalhoun [at] gmail [dot] com) or comment here if you have a preference of time of day/day of the week. Or if there’s any other factors keeping you from DDPPing — the cost, the location, …

love,
Crissy

p.s. there’s a “discussion” on Facebook if you’d like to comment there: http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?topic=6107&uid=7155091598

today = DDPP!

welcome to Dance Dance Party Party day! i’ve just finished the playlist and save for some last-minute tinkering, here it be:

Your requests are in there and we are ready to rock and roll. See you guys at Mad for Dance this afternoon!

xoxo
