Houston will no longer be doing Zoom as their primary dance experience. They will resume in-person dances on July 2 and every other week thereafter. (Members only. Fully vaccinated. Must show proof of vaccination.). Houston will experiment with Zoom broadcasting their in-person dance this Friday – July 2 (Zoom link stays the same and is still posted on the HIFD website). After that, it will depend on the level of interest and the quality of broadcast they can achieve. To express your interest or provide feedback on the July 2 broadcast, email John at jnjbloom@gmail.com.

AIFD will continue to host Zoom events every other week until Austin Parks and Recreation allows in person events to return. AIFD’s next Zoom event is Friday, July 9th.

John Bloom of HIFD has posted some good information on how to help better your virtual dance experience.

Also, the dance leaders would like to provide you with some ideas on how to have an easier time following us during our virtual dance sessions. For dances that move around a lot, try taking smaller steps and doing quick little pivots in place to face your screen again. Also, putting up a mirror opposite your monitor screen can assist you in viewing the dance leader while your back is to the screen.

“She was a good friend & confidante, a joyful dance partner, a lover of life, and she cared deeply about people.

Frances handled her diagnosis and treatment of cancer over the last two and a half years with true grace, fortitude, and good humor.

She will be so missed and remembered dearly by everyone in her wide circle of friends.”.
