Was inquiring about your dance classes. How much and how long.
Hello,
The dance workshops took place the last week in January. They were $15 a class and lasted 90mins. Please stay tuned for the next set of workshops. Thanks 🙂
Dear Uzo,
I was given your contact information from Jade as a great person to connect with.

If you are available and have any interest please contact me. DeeAnn 520-668-0039. Have a great day!!
