Welcoming guest instructors Lucky and Mae before our summer hiatus

802 Westie Collective is proud to welcome Lucky Sipin and Maelys Fillon to host a workshop the afternoon of Saturday, June 1st. You won’t want to miss the instruction of these talented Montreal-based pros prior to our regular Saturday social dance.

A reminder that June will be our last month of scheduled programming before we’re on hiatus during July and August. After that we’ll be back the first week in September. So get your dancing in this month!
