Newcomers of all ages always welcome to join our friendly class. No partner necessary. Social Classes have an emphasis on learning and dancing as many dances as possible.  This can include learning new and challenging dances as well as working with a repertoire of favorites.  Figures and footwork are taught as they come up, but the focus of the class is on dancing many dances in one evening.&lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Thu, 17 May 2012 14:36:31 -0600</pubDate><guid>http://suapi2.org/api/0/e/detail/options:eventid=22655</guid></item><item><title>Steppin' In It</title><link>http://suapi2.org/api/0/e/detail/options:eventid=19633</link><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Jul 25, 2011 9:30 pm&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Green Door Blues Bar &amp; Grill&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2005 East Michigan Avenue&lt;br /&gt;Lansing, MI&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Every Monday night&lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Thu, 17 May 2012 14:36:31 -0600</pubDate><guid>http://suapi2.org/api/0/e/detail/options:eventid=19633</guid></item><item><title>English Country Dance</title><link>http://suapi2.org/api/0/e/detail/options:eventid=22108</link><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Multiple dates&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chapel Hill Condominium Clubhouse&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3350 Green Road&lt;br /&gt;Ann Arbor, MI&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bob Messer and Greg Meisner lead dancing with music by Childgrove.
