They would like  to do a short performance followed by something on the model of Nick Child’s Salsa Ceilidh.

DUNDEE University students – HELP

26 06 2010

The rules have changed for holding classes for charity at Mono in Dundee uni,  now need to become affilated to the uni or pay for the room, would like to try the first option, this would entail the following :

1) formation of  a student led comittee of 4 people, but the members need to be elected at an AGM meeting.

2)  a petition of 20 Dundee uni students to provide names to the student council for affilation

3) One representative from the committee needs to attend a meeting to affilate the group, this takes about 5 mins where you tell the committee the benefits of the salsa classes & why it should be affilated, of course we would prepare a case beforehand of what to say etc.

CAN anyone HELP ??? you need to be a Dundee uni student though, please pass email to others who might be able to help for any of the above, if you have been at any classes anywhere & are a student you could be involved.

Please email to Sarahbrox@gmail.com  asap, as need to move on this quickly.

Thanks & Help

14 06 2010

Many thanks to everyone who came ( & helped with the music interludes by singing !) to Latin Quarter last Friday at Club Romano, we raised £245 for the Azul Wasi project, so thanks for the raffle prizes & to the Indian dancers which we all enjoyed watching.  Next LQ will be after Summer in Sept or October.

Can anyone help ?  I need to apply to be an affilated member of Dundee Uni this year before I can hold classes at DUSA, so can anyone help me with this ? I need a few volunteers who are Dundee Uni students currently who have been to my classes at Dusa before who can say that they are worth while & enjoyable etc etc and can also come with me to a meeting with the committee at some point.  Any volunteers please email sarahbrox@gmail.com asap thanks.
