Janna’s International Dance Studio
755 Thimble Shoals, Suite C
Newport News, VA  23606

Zombies and Vampires and Ghouls, oh my!  Time to dust off (or leave the dust for ambiance) your best Halloween costume and join us for a evening of delightfully different dancing.  Guests are invited to dress in their favorite Halloween ghostume or zombietume or…well you get the idea…for our annual Halloween party.  Bring a ghoulishly delightful dish to share.  Bake, brew, or buy it, its doesn’t matter…this is a true pot luck.  Soft drinks will be provided. 

Dancers who would like to perform, this is an open floor show with a few of simple rules:
1. No traditional music! Leave your belly dance cd’s at home. Here’s a chance to use all those great songs that make you dance around your living room.  Music is on a first come first gets basis, so call or email in your music choice to Janna as soon as you decide.
2. Keep the music family friendly, please.
3. Songs should be no more than 5 minutes long.
4. Oct. 18th or when the show if full, will be the cut off date for dancers to register for the Hafla-Ween.  So get your dance slot early!

So mark, stab, or rip your calendars on Oct. 29 and we will see you there!
Sorry, no digital, video or still photography allowed for the safety of our dancers!
