PIVOTS IS OPEN

CHARLESTON SC

There seems to be some doubt as to whether Pivots is open . I am not sure why but to clear up the confusion Pivots is open.

We are open Tuesday through Saturday nights. We open at 6 PM every night.

SHAG LESSONS

We are having dance lessons only on Tuesdays for March because we do not have enough signed up for two nights of lessons. So we will start this Tuesday with the March lessons. The last Tuesday in March we will have a workshop with Barbara and Jerry Wade . The cost will be $10.00 and you can sign up online or buy your ticket at Pivots ! We only have three (3) people signed up for Intermediate lessons so we will not start those until April. If you do not have your tickets and you want to take please go online and get them www.pivotsbeachclub.com or at least email or call and let me know you will be taking lessons starting This Tuesday and whether you are taking Basic I or Basic II, then you can buy the tickets this Tuesday night at the door. If you are signed up for Thursday night you will have to take this month on Tuesday night since we do not have enough signed up for two nights of classes.

JUNIOR LESSONS

We have about (3) three juniors signed up for lessons. We need about 10 of them to make a class and as soon as we get 10 signed up Nancy and Charlie will start teaching on Saturday nights 5:00 - 6:00 and the kids can dance until about 8 PM after lessons . Please email Nancy Strother at nancystrother@aol.com if you have a junior that wants to take lessons.
