This month will be very, very quiet for sixteen days. Then it will be very, very busy for ten days as I ricochet from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to London, England, leading balls and teaching. Whee!
After my London weekend I will be wandering around the UK for a few days doing research. Dorset, here I come!

Friday-Saturday, November 17-18th ~ Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
The 19th Annual Remembrance Day Dinner & Ball (Facebook community)
5:30pm-midnight each day. TWO nights! TWO formal dinners! TWO balls! Both evenings will be formal Civil War-era events with pre-1865 costume (civilian or military) required. Hosted by John & Nancy Newbold. Advance reservations (dinner and ball - $86.00 or ball-only - $40.00) are needed, and this event generally sells out well in advance! Friday night: 1860s fancy dress ball. Saturday night: classic formal Civil War ball. I will be calling with live music both evenings by Calliope and different beginner-friendly dance programs! Registration is open through November 6th only for dinner/ball tickets; ball-only later and at the door if available.
Sunday, November 19th ~ Lancaster, Pennsylvania area
Quadrille Workshop for Historic Rock Ford

Saturday-Sunday, November 25-26th ~ London, England
America's Dance Revolution: 1876-1900 for The Historical Dance Society
A weekend of workshops on couple dances, quadrilles, and contra dances of the late nineteenth century. This weekend will be accessible to all levels of dancers from beginners to experienced, and teachers will find my approach to couple dance technique and teaching of interest as well. One- and two-day pricing; special rates for HDS members. Registration is now open at the HDS website.

I am also still available for private or group online lessons and talks via Skype or Zoom (or your videoconferencing software of choice).
