Hello, Strand fans! The hardest part of today's puzzle is the spangram where the first and last letters of BALLROOMDANCE are touching in the middle of the column

The stray “Z” in the middle of the board could only be part of WALTZ, creating a gap to find the aforementioned twisty spangram, which ended up being completely surrounded

Next was QUICKSTEP, written at the top of the spangram Now there was only one word to find: connect RUMBA, and I finished the puzzle in a fairly solid time
