Attention AAMC dancers and supporters! This is such a difficult update, but I wanted to let all of you know our beloved ballroom suffered extensive water damage in a recent storm and is currently closed while repairs are taking place. So even though this time is very challenging, it is bringing some much-needed releasing of what needs to be let go and fiercely ushering in what is needed.
So what does this mean for classes? Because of community support, many of our classes are still happening in temporary locations including:
Zumba with Kim Postlewaite and Tammy is currently at the Astoria Elks Lodge
Intermediate Tap with Marco Davis is currently at Encore in Warrenton
Dance Fitness with Erin Carlsen is currently at Encore in Warrenton
Yoga Fundamentals with Megan Rose is currently at Encore in Warrenton
We will post updates on this page and our website as we get them, but when in doubt please contact the instructor directly to verify. The full schedule and instructor info can be found at: https://astoriaartsandmovement.com/ballroom-schedule We are incredibly grateful for all of these establishments offering their spaces so we can keep folks moving. This is community coming together, and the AAMC has never forgotten that we wouldnβt be here without you.
βAnd now let us believe in a long year that is given to us, new, untouched, full of things that have never been, full of work that has never been done, full of tasks, claims, and demands; and let us see that we learn to take it without letting fall too much of what it has to bestow upon those who demand of it necessary, serious, and great things."
- Rainer Maria Rilke
We love you and we promise the ballroom will be as beautiful as ever once healed,
Jessamyn
