Hi Everyone!

We have a busy and exciting period coming up. Thursdays at Alchemy Dance Academy in Basingstoke are going brilliantly. And after a period in 'hibernation' launching the Academy and working behind the scenes, our performance and guest teaching calendar is choka-block full for the next few months.

Our new show is due to be launched at Mambo City's 5* Congress at the end of this month! As a warm up to this we will be doing a preview performance at Alchemy Dance Academy on Thursday 24th April. If you haven't been to the Academy yet, we would love for you to come down for a dance and cheer us on! To those of you starting the Beginners course next month, you are more than welcome to come for a visit - watch the classes, social dancing and show, and find out what you're getting yourself into!!!

Due to Oakridge Hall being used for local elections Alchemy Dance Academy will be closed on Thursday 1st May. We will be back on Thursday 8th May. The next cycle of courses will also commence on the 8th. We will be running 'Conversion to On2: Part 2' which is a follow-on course to the conversion courses we have been running for the last 2 months. Guarantee your place and book now! The Beginners courses will also be starting a new cycle, so spread the salsa word and invite your friends!

Also coming up is the first of our specialist Academy workshops in Basingstoke. We are kicking off with a Ladies Styling & Technique workshop on Saturday 17th May. Davina will be covering dance movement & technique, body isolation, rotation, arm styling and how to style within flow of partnerwork. Places are limited and booking is in advance only. For more info visit the academy page.

There are a few more details on our news below, but keep checking our website as it is kept up-to-date with all the latest.

And finally... a reminder that if you are serious about improving your dancing the 'Alchemy Way' we hold private tuition at our studio in WInchester. Also available are gift vouchers for lessons, which we have found to be a popular gift! Contact us for more info.

See you on the dancefloor soon!
