Judah's bio: "
I’m certified in Latin dance teaching by DVIDA, an internationally acclaimed syllabus and method of ballroom dance instruction. I taught in Brentwood, TN for about a year, as well as in Leadville and summit county for about a year. I studied dance in high school and after.”
The location: Congregational United Church of Christ, 217 Crossman Ave, Buena Vista, CO 81211. Near the Buena Vista US Post Office. (The dance is held in the same room as the old contra dances were held a few years ago, before COVID.)
