Hey folks,
Due to a misunderstanding with Semeneya, we are not only canceling the
dance, but the lessons as well for this coming Friday, August 17th.  So
please don't show up... you're going to end up at a Salsa demo/thingy... not
quite sure what it is.  If you want to go anyways, go to saballroom.com to
figure out what it is.

Normal lessons will pick up again next week on the 24th and fortunately, we
have a 5th Friday so they will proceed as usual with a 4 week lesson
curriculum.  Sorry for the mixup!

Well folks,
It's been a long time coming... you've heard grumblings of an imminent San
Antonio big-time swing workshop... well, here it is.  I am proud to announce
a new era in Swing dancing in San Antonio.   An era where swing dancers from
around Texas will come over and take a spin.  An era where everyone in San
Antonio will know about swing dancing.  An era where we... uh... we dance...
a lot.  As President... I am proud to announce the coming of LIOSA!
*crickets chirping in the background*....

Ok, LIOSA is Lindy in Old San Antonio and is the beginning (or re-beginnings
I should say) of big workshops in San Antonio.  We're bringing in
instructors from Austin and Houston to put this on and it is... totally... a
big deal.  Much, much more information is available at our website at
http://www.sasds.org/liosa.php but here's the gist of it.

LIOSA kicks off Friday night on October 26th, 2007 with the regular weekly
lessons hosted by the San Antonio Swing Dance Society followed by the LIOSA
kickoff dance. Saturday will be filled with beginner track and
intermediate/advanced track workshops and an evening dance. An
"instructors-only" lunch and workshop will be held on Sunday afternoon at an
additional cost.  Housing will be offered to our out of town guests, so
INVITE EVERYONE YOU CAN THINK OF.

Price is right now set for $50 for members (and affiliates), $55 for
non-members, but that price will be going up at the end of September so
REGISTER NOW!!!

SERIOUSLY!!  GO NOW!!! (and see if my webpage actually works this time...)

please contact the instructor you're interested in directly and arrange a
time in which he/she will be available.

Remember, if you are planning on working on your lead/follow skills or
particular moves, it would be better to find a lesson teacher of the
opposite gender.  If you're working on styling or a particular footwork, it
may be better to find a teacher of the same gender.

This year’s Austin Lindy Exchange is fast approaching and registration has been
brisk.  We are expecting dancers from locations far and wide.  We wanted to let
everybody know that the price is going to go up in a few weeks (more details in
a subsequent post/e-mail), the current price for the entire weekend is $55. 
That is a very low price.

   You can register now at:
   http://www.austinlindyexchange.com/register.php

   Registration includes:

   Three nights of dancing (main dance and after-hours), plus our first ALX
gospel brunch on Sunday (food included with registration).   We are proud to
present five bands this year:

   White Ghost Shivers
   Seth Walker Band
   Paris 49
   Kris Kimura Quintet
   and
   Giant City

   Band Bios can be found at http://www.austinlindyexchange.com/music.php

   We will also feature out of town DJs Greg Avakian and Rayned Wiles, plus the
Austin DJs (including the currently traveling Bill Borgida).

   Registration also includes priority for hosting (i.e., if you register
earlier, you are more likely to get hosted, if you wait until the last minute,
you take your chances).

   We are also going to bring back Casino night this year and other extra
curricular events.

   See you there,
   The ALX Committee

Hey everyone,
This is just a reminder that this is the last week that you can get the
Early Registration Rates for LIOSA (http://liosa.sasds.org).  We have the
detailed schedule posted on the website now so you can see what you're
getting yourself into.  After September 30th, the price will go up $10 to
$60 for Members and Affiliates and $65 for non-Members.

If you have already registered and have not paid, then remember, if we don't
get the check by October 1st, then you will have to pay the higher rates.  I
really hope ya'll will register, it's going to be a great event with great
instructors, and even awesomer dancing.

See you in October!

-Raleigh

P.S. If you're in charge of a mailing list for another city's swing dance
society, please forward this on.  Thanks!

and/or white, you're encouraged to wear it!
When: Saturday, September 22nd; Intro Lesson, 8-9 pm; Dancing, 9pm-12am
Where: Memorial Student Center (MSC) room 224, on the Texas A&M Campus
How much: $6 for non members, $3 for members and affiliates (we recognize

Also, don't forget about our workshop coming up with Bill Borgida, on

website.
