Judy's School of Dance Students: Great Covid Opportunity for you!

It is with deep regret that the WNYCA Board of Directors announces the cancellation of Nickel City 2021. Please read below for important information. What’s Nex...t: We hope you’ll consider joining us for Fiddlefest on July 31, 2021 in Springville, New York. We will post information soon. Nickel City 2022 will be held on April 21-23, 2022 at the Doubletree Niagara Falls, New York. Nickel City 2023 will be held on April 13-15, 2023 at the Doubletree Niagara Falls, New York. We are in discussions as a Board about other small possibilities for the summer and/or fall 2021, and will release details about any opportunities in the coming months. What if I have a hotel room at the Doubletree?: DO NOT DO ANYTHING. DO NOT CALL THE HOTEL TO CANCEL. You will be receiving a form from us in the coming weeks. It will come from [email protected]. That form will handle all questions related to hotel and registration. It will ask if you want your room rolled over to 2022. Once we have your reply, the hotel will make the appropriate adjustments to cancel your 2021 room and place the reservation for 2022 when the hotel computer accepts 2022 bookings. What if I am on the waitlist for a room? You will remain there and will be offered rooms as we have rolled over the existing reservations. What if I have a registration rolled over from 2020?: You will have the same options as last spring. You will receive a form via email that provides you explanation for hotel and registration. You will have the options to request a refund via PayPal or by mailed US check, to rollover your registration to Nickel City 2022, or to convert your registration to a charitable donation. Please note any electronic refunds will require you to enter banking information to retrieve funds. Please watch for the email from [email protected] sometime between January 18 and January 25. Why cancel now?: It is our responsibility and goal to always provide a safe environment, and under the current COVID rates, we cannot do that. Given the continued closure of the Canadian border, NY’s gathering restrictions (currently at 25 people in Niagara Falls and not higher than 50 since March 2020), and NY’s requirements for out of state travelers to have two negative Covid tests and quarantine for three days between tests, the demands on having an event in a few short months are insurmountable. As a result, it is wiser and safer to make the call now before anyone makes travel arrangements and before monies are expended on preparations. We wish you all a safe and healthy 2021. We miss you all dearly, and we really cannot wait to share a dance floor with you again.

Judy's School of Dance is open tonight for those who can safely attend.

Are you a happy clogger?

Some rolling jigs coming at you tomorrow on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Youtube Music... all of em.. wherever you get your music in ya! You can che...ck out my first two singles right now on bandcamp: kylewaymouth.bandcamp.com Really appreciate all the love for the first two singles on Bandcamp... it's pretty laughable the cents artists make from iTunes and streaming services and such so support on Bandcamp goes SUCH a long way! Endless thanks to all who have supported! I love liner notes but hard to get those on digital releases these days so huge thanks to all who have made this music happen: Music Kyle Waymouth Production Jacob Charron Mix Donald Richard Master Joao Carvalho Mastering Artwork CLIRE Background Image Eberhard grossgasteiger This would all be pretty lame without y'all! Thanks everybody! WEEOO!

My second single 'Perth Hills' is now live on Bandcamp! Once again, they are waiving their revenue share for the day so more money goes directly to the artists.... You can listen and buy the song at the link below! www.kylewaymouth.bandcamp.com My previous single 'The Ancient' is also available on bandcamp and all other streaming platforms! Bandcamp is an online platform where artists can sell their music. After you make a purchase, you can download the song on to your computer or listen to it on the bandcamp app on your phone!

My next single 'Perth Hills' is out this Friday on Bandcamp. Bandcamp has been incredibly supportive of artists during these last 7 months and is once again wai...ving their revenue share on Friday so more money goes towards supporting the artists posting on their platform. The song will be on all other platforms November 13th. Thanks so much for all the support so far!

Another one bites the dust! I was remaining hopeful and staying positive however I am going to have to cancel our "Fall for Clogging" Workshop and Fundraiser. Looking forward to re-scheduling it in 2021!

Make every step count.

Im sure many of you heard the recent government announcement about moving to Stage 3 of the Reopening Plan for Ontario. Although this will come into effect for our region on July 17, 2020, I have made the decision to delay reopening Judys School of Dance until September 14, 2020. Our studio must follow the guidelines set up by the Ministry of Health and will ensure measures are in place for the safe return of our students. In order to do this we must make changes to how w...e operate. Safety protocols could be different by September. We will continue to monitor the situation and hope that a second wave does not happen. All we can do is be flexible and adapt to the situation. At this point social distancing will be in place with six-foot distances being marked on our floor. Door and windows will remain open whenever possible to improve air circulation. Hand sanitizers will be available at various locations in the studio. Thought will have to be given to our waiting room, as we want to avoid people being in close contact with one another. We will co-ordinate an arrival procedure before opening up in September. Our large clogging, buck and adult step dance classes may have to be reduced in size. We will have to stagger classes to reduce crossover. We will clean high touch surfaces as often as possible. On researching today I have found other gym/studios that are opening in conjunction with Stage 3. Some have stated that clients must wear a mask when entering and leaving the facility however once you are on your designated six-foot distanced marker you are not required to keep it on. Each dancer will have to use his/her own discretion as to how to handle this. If you are wearing a mask you may want to have more than one for the class, allowing you to change your mask if it gets sweaty. It would be ideal if we were in Stage 4 by September and masks were not required. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this Covid-19 pandemic. Stay tuned for more information regarding our 2020-21 dance season! If you have not already done so, please confirm by email your participation in our fall classes. Dancefully Yours, Judy

Refer to the promo for times on Saturday June 13 for the USA and Canada, and Sunday June 14 for Europe, Australia, Asia and New Zealand.
