Important changes to cancellation policy.....
Dear dance students,
Please take note of the following information regarding certain policy changes.
Up until now, Melissa Rose Dance has not had an official cancellation policy, and I have been very lenient and accomodating when clients find the need to cancel. However, as demand increases and my availability becomes limited, I must make sure to respect the needs of all my students.
This past weekend I received no less than four last-minute, same-day appointment cancellations.
Each one of these appointments could have gone to other clients. In fact, I had told several other students asking for these very same sessions that I was unavailable, as lesson times are first come, first serve.
I still pay fees to rent the studio floor for the times that I reserve, and it is not fair to my students, or to other instructors sharing the studio space.
In the future, lessons not cancelled at least 24 hours in advance will be subject to forfeiture. Please take this into consideration when scheduling appointments.
I thank you for your understanding, and please let me know if you have any questions.

Farewell Sandunga...
Hello Tangueros,
I regret to inform you that as of today, just one month shy of its third anniversary, Milonga Sandunga is no more. The studio owner has decided to schedule another event in its place. I apologize for the late notice, but I was only just informed of the decision this evening.
However, this piece of news does not come without a bright side. I am currently in the process of arranging an absolutely FABULOUS new venue for the "third Friday" milonga. I will announce the details once the final arrangements have been made.
Stay tuned for more information, and keep on dancing!
See you soon,
Melissa
