PREREQUISITE:   successful completion of "Intro to WCS" (above) or our old "WCS2" level DAYS & DATES: May 16 - June 13 (4 consecutive Wednesdays) TIME: 7:30-8:10 pm (40-minute classes ...that's what makes this a "Lite" series) COST: $50/person ...payable in cash the first night. LOCATION: The Barking Frog   (details to registrants before the first class) ENROLMENT: Pre-registration is MANDATORY HOW TO PREREGISTER: <<< Enrolment does NOT open until late April.   Here as FYI only! NB: each class is followed by free open WCWednesday dancing to 9:15 pm or beyond June & beyond   We may do dance-only nights before breaking for the summer, but this Fall we'll do various WCS3-level modules (the "Lite" kind, with more time for dancing).   Join our E-List for details before they're posted here.   FYI BEGINNERS...   Successful completion of Intro to WCS -- originally two 4-week courses (WCS1 & WCS2) now combined into a single 6-week format -- provides all the WCS basics you'll need.   But it also gives you access to our popular, ongoing WCS 3 series ...advanced (but non-sequential) 3-to-5 week modules you can take (in any order) to turn your WCS into a more creative, rewarding (and eye-catching) experience!! ...but also, PLEASE NOTE!!   We've cut back on the frequency of our Beginner programs -- each needs a set number of weeks to run (originally 8, now 6), but we often have difficulty finding the required number of consecutive weeks on our calendar (family, travel, etc.).   Once a year is no longer unusual ...e.g. our previous Intro to WCS was April-May, 2011.   In other words, if you want to learn with us, DON'T PROCRASTINATE!! (we'll be retiring soon)
