For those of you in the area, I'll be giving a showcase with my new ballroom partner at 10:30pm on Saturday, February 24, at the Allegro Ballroom in Emeryville. More information at http://allegroinvitational.com or http://allegroballroom.com.

Also, I'm helping the other SBDT officers organize this year's Cardinal Classic on April 7. We're flying in a world-class ballroom dance couple, Blackpool Professional Standard semifinalists Linas Koreiva and Ieva Pauksena, for a showcase -- I'd come just for that if I were you, but as added incentive, I'll also be dancing at that along with one of the best amateur standard couples in the United States and lots of other great dancers. There'll also be a silent auction, ballroom vendors, and even private and group lessons with Linas and Ieva.

Hope to see you at one or both!
