Hey there, Blues Dancers, it's me, Mile High Blues! I wanted to let you know that this summer will be my Farewell Dance, and I would love to invite you to dance with me one last time!
I want to make sure you heard the news that I’m retiring directly from me and let you know I need your help!
My new pals at The Get Down are partnering with us to celebrate on the Friday of their new event this July 2026. Whether you want to come just for my Farewell on Friday or the whole event, there are options for you!

I NEED YOUR HELP to shape the night and share our amazing memories together.
Will you email me your answers to these questions:
1) How Mile High Blues has impacted you?
In your dance, your musicality, how you understand Blues culture and history, what it's meant to be in community together, or even performing or competing...

2) What might make this Farewell a special night of celebrating the stories and legacy of Mile High Blues?
Some ideas we’ve thought of: a documentary, a flashmob, creating farewell art, a musical tribute, and sharing our stories and memories with each other - maybe written where we can read 'em or on a video loop. Gimme your creative ideas!
Email us your answers at [email protected]

Thanks for taking time to do that!

Mostly, I just want to see you again so make sure you get your ticket and spread the word.

Let's make this Farewell a night to remember!
