Instructor Bio: Allison Antoine was first introduced
to French the summer after 5th grade and fell in
love with it. When it was time to choose which
language to study in high school, she immediately
chose French as it was “by far the prettiest language
around.” She thought she would only study three
years of High School French, but after visiting France
for the first time between her junior and senior year
of High School, she was sold. She went to college
at Augustana College in Sioux Falls, SD where she
obtained majors in French, K-12 education, and a
minor in Spanish. She has been to France four times,
one of which was an extended study abroad period
in college. She worked at a French immersion camp
in college in northern MN and currently assists with
some translation work.

Ballroom Basics $49
Course #: 45798 Date(s): 9/29/12-11/3/12
Site: Dawn’s Dance Connection, Spirit Lake
Time: 7-8pm (Sat.)
Join other beginners in fun-filled classes where you’ll
learn the basic dance steps, or brush up on what you
already know. In the six week sessions you’ll learn
the foxtrot, swing, and waltz as well as other social
dance steps. The physical activity, mental stimulation
& social interaction are the added bonuses of this
fun sport. Dancing can improve circulation, burn
calories, increase stamina & can help prevent or
slow loss of bone mass & in turn, ward off illnesses.
Mentally, dancing is a great stress-reliever. Life’s
pressures simply melt into the background. You’ll
meet new people, gain self-confidence & have a
great time too!
