WSDS 2nd Anniversary Dance!
Thanks to everyone who came out for our dance! We had over 80 people come out, and we had a great time. We just might have to do this again next year.

Every Sunday night at Joy’s School of Dance (click here for a map), we have an intermediate lesson from 7:00pm to 8:00pm, followed by a beginner lesson at 8:00pm, and then a short dance which runs from 8:30pm to 9:30pm. On April 14, we will start a Lindy Hop for Beginners lesson series during our Intermediate lesson time. The requested donation is $5 each week.
