Hi Everyone!

The next cycle of courses at Alchemy Dance Academy are commencing this Thursday 8th May. We are running 'Conversion to On2: Part 2'. This course is suitable for those who have participated in the conversion courses we have been running for the last 2 months. You are also welcome to join if you have participated in any other On2 workshops or have some experience in dancing On2 and wish to further your learning. 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!

Davina will be teaching a Ladies Styling & Technique workshop on Saturday 17th May at Fitness First in Basingstoke. She will be covering a variety of topics including dance movement & technique, body isolation, rotation, and arm styling. If you want to learn how to be smooth and elegant on the dance floor, and style within flow of partnerwork, this is for you!! Places are limited. Click for more info and to book.

Thank you to those who came down to the Academy to support the debut of our new show. We have since taken it to Mambo City's 5* Congress, Salsa Republic in London, and Salsa South at Bluewater, Kent... all in the last week!! It has been really well received and we are looking forward to performing at the many events we have lined up over the next few months. If you have yet to see the show and wish to join us at one of these, check our calendar.

There is more detailed info below, and keep checking our website as it is kept up-to-date with all the latest news.

See you on the dancefloor soon!
