Dance:X - Exercise in Disguise

02/02/2025

I guess I've been trying to avoid making this post, not wanting to fully admit what I was going to say, and that isn't fair on anyone

I've been spending the last few weeks trying to think of ways to make things work, to juggle everything that I have going on in my life

To focus on my work, to maintain the classes, to spend time with my husband, to relax, to find time for myself, to fully find a new life in Manchester...and it's been really hard to make it all work and click into place

I love Dance:X, I love the community that was created, I look at all the people who have connected through Dance:X and found the best bonds of friendship and it makes me so happy and proud

But it's time to say goodbye

It's one that I never thought I'd say, but I think that it's the right time to do so

Over the last 8 years we have created such a huge community of people, and that community grew even stronger during COVID, I'm so grateful for everyone who has supported us over the years

So, this is it.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you everyone who has ever walked through the doors, to the people who liked and shared a post, to the people who helped us grow, to the people who came along every week, to the people who came along to just have a smile....

All of you, you are all amazing! And though as I write this I'm a teary eyed mess, I know that it's the right thing to do

Thank you all so very much and I hope to see you all again in the future

Always and forever,

Marcus ❤️

Just as an update as I've had quite a few messages from different people regarding the classes, from current members to new members

Dance:X is now officially closed until the new year

Over the next 2 months I will be reviewing both classes with some changes coming in January 2025

I apologise that I couldn't keep any of the classes going through the Christmas period, however I think I need a bit of a break to make some necessary changes to the classes

I hope you all can understand, enjoy yourselves through the Christmas period, and I look forward to seeing you all in January 🫶

Evening all!

Dance:X Preston

Due to work commitments I will not be able to run tomorrow's class and with it being the last one before we break for Christmas I would have loved to have been there however I'm not able to be

With that in mind I will be, unfortunately, closed tomorrow and not be returning until after Christmas

I hope you all understand and I hope you all have an amazing break, whatever your plans may be!

Please ensure that you tag your dancing buds to make sure that nobody rocks up tomorrow

Apologies again, but I look forward to seeing you all after Christmas

As the winter months approach, it starts getting colder, and darker and we all just want to stay inside, throw on a blanket, and just chill out for the evenings

That's why, for the first time since we started, Dance:X will be closing its doors for both classes at the end of October and return in the new year

Dance:X Preston will be closing its doors Tuesday 22nd October

Dance:X Monton will be closing its doors Thursday 24th October

I will then be reviewing both classes and looking to start back up in the new year

Thank you for understanding and I look forward to seeing everyone next week for both classes!
