Hope to see you back next year!
“It is what you can do with The Line Dance CD that makes it so
unique”.
It is designed so that each track gets a little faster than the one before
it - Starts slow gets faster! This makes it perfect for beginner to
advanced line dancers for practicing or learning new dances or following a step
sheet. There are 23 tracks including 3 Waltzes.
To my knowledge there is nothing else like it available.
There is a video half way down that explains how to get the best out of the
CD and why it is so unique. There are also track samples of all 23
tracks.

A wow pop west coast – Great beat – And Maggie has come up with a really
cool dance which was a big hit teach for sure at Orlando & Southport &
elsewhere – Flows really well – Like the syncopated ending into the syncopated

J
Raise Your Glass (Rachael McEnaney)
Pink (Raise Your Glass)
64/2 Higher Intermediate/Advanced
Music 10 Dance 10
Great pop dance – Don’t rate it much above Intermediate myself so a good
prospect for modern line dance classes – For those that like dances such as
You’re Amazing, Dirty Bit, Only Girl in the like – Flows really well with the
track & a couple of easy restarts, including one which has a shake tag just
like Dirty Bit !! J .... With this one you “raise your glass” as well though lol
............ A big hit with the class – Neat Box/Chasse start & a cool hips
sequence.
Dancing Tonight (Robbie M. Hickie)
Kat DeLuna (Dancing Tonight)
64/4 Intermediate
Music 8 Dance 8
Nice classic modern mainstream pop dance – This is the 2011 Daffodil Dance
& I’m thinking it will be a popular floor filler – It flows really well to a
neat track – I like the ¾ Sailor into the side/kickball sequence & the
double cross-rock/chasse/sailor ½ section – Class enjoyed.

A hit teach for Kate at Southport which was my encouragement – Love the
track & the dance is a cool fit with some cool & different steps – Done
this one with both classes now & really well received mainstream
Intermediate pop/samba dance – Neat classic Kate flick in the beginning sequence
followed by cool sweep step moves & a ½ turn/cross shuffle – Samba sequence
that hits the beat & a really cool jump/hips section too – A really great
dance all in all J – A Top 10 dance for sure I’d say – Watch you get the right
version of the track though !!!!!
Perfect (Guyton Mundy)
Pink (Perfect)
32/4 Intermediate
Music 9 Dance 9
A great follow-up for those that are enjoying You’re Amazing – This one a
cool/fast night club style – Lots of turns & diagonals – Testing maybe but
neat – Especially like the back to back press/coaster & press/lock
step moves – Special thanks to Guyton for this brand new release at Orlando
which has also been well received by my Wednesday class on my return – And a hit
late-bird teach at Southport & Mundesley – Loads up dancing it at Carlisle
this weekend – A dance on the up for sure :-)
Make This Day (Rachael McEnaney)

A neat catchy country Two Step much like Rhyme Or Reason – Classic two step
moves – Dancers in the Easy Intermediate session enjoying this one – A must do
teach for the country fans I would have thought – Great track – I see Rachael is
teaching this one at Boston – Not on the schedule, but don’t let her get away
without teaching you I’m No Good & Dancing In Circles too somehow – Great
mainstream country dances !! J
Dancing In Circles (Rachael McEnaney)
Love & Theft (Dancing In Circles)
72/2 Intermediate
Music 8 Dance 8
A fast country waltz, slowed down with lots of holds/drags – Nice opening
hesitation turn sequence at the beginning & turning basic sequence into a
weave/drag ending – Lots up dancing this one on my travels – Both my classes
enjoying it – A good waltz to follow on from the likes of Wonderland Waltz &
We Belong most recently.
New Train (Niels Poulsen)
Sean Kenny (New Train)
32/4 Beginner
Music 9 Dance 8
Classic catchy country – Ideal for beginners – The dance great for practice
with vines, struts & paddles/pivots.
Dr. Wanna Do (Maggie Gallagher)
Kat DeLuna (Dancing Tonight)
32/4 Improver
Music 9 Dance 8
Really catchy Charleston – Classic steps plus love the walk-around stomp –
3 restarts but ever so obvious with the music – Fun teach at Orlando &
Southport on the opening evening J - Seems to be one on the up on my
travels.
My Pretty Belinda (Vikki Morris)
Dr Victor (Pretty Belinda)
32/2 Beginner

Catchy sing-a-long – Great practice for chasse/paddle/jazz/lock-steps with
the higher beginners – But this one is all about the happy/fun track !! J
Open Book (Jo Thompson)
Scooter Lee (Open Book)
32/4 Improver
Music 8 Dance 7
A nice smooth rumba track & a gentle easy dance to enjoy – Just basic
steps but great for Beginner/Improvers – Dance only a 7 for me because it’s way
too easy, although for Improvers I’m sure it’s worth an 8 or 9.
Beyond Your Eyes (Peter & Alison)
Jessica Matrinsson (Beyond Your Eyes)
32/4 Improver/Easy Intermediate
Music 8 Dance 8
Nice smooth pop/latin cha/mambo – If you like Wrong Side Of The Road check
this one out too – Really cool syncopation – Mix of classic steps to a cool
track “just a nice track to dance too”.
Prince Charming (Kate & Rob)
Edei (In My Bed)
64/4 Intermediate
Music 9 Dance 9
Has the feel of a Top 10 dance about it this one – Kate taught it at
Southport – And Rob taught it as Carlisle – A big hit at both – And great
feedback at both of my classes – A cool pop two-step – Like the Chase ½ / Chase
Full sequence into the back/ball/cross ..... And a neat turning ending – Really
catchy track too J
Flavour Of The Month (Peter & Alison)
Raul Malo (Superstar)
36/4 Beginner/Improver
Music 9 Dance 8
More Improver than Beginner – A really catchy track & a great tester
for the Improver gang – I especially like the Side/Rock/Vine sequence which
different & cool - And the really tester for the Improvers – They managed it
& loved the dance/track – It is a 36 count phrasing which works throughout –
A country two-step.
Good Girl (Craig Bennett)
Alexis Jordan (Good Girl)
64/2 Intermediate
Music 9 Dance 9
A hit teach for Craig at Carlisle & Mundesley with us – And another
well received by both my classes – A modern Intermediate pop dance – A fast cha
that flows really well – With the bonus of no tags/restarts !! J Much like
Playing With Fire, although not such a powerful/hit track.
Hurts Instead (Dan McInerney)
Adele (Someone Like You)
32/2 Advanced
Music 10 Dance 10
A classic nightclub – In the same league as ‘Feel’ although a touch harder
– A lovely smooth hit track to dance too & I know so many Newliners who are
loving this one – A hit teach for Dan back at Derby Sunday-Out & Danish
Newline – And many had a go with Dan in Orlando too although it was not on the
schedule there – Our Wednesday late-birds loved it – As did I – Packed with
cool, different & challenging moves as ever Dan’s dances are J
Same Old Something (Kate Sala)
Alan Jackson (Every Now & Then)
32/4 Improver
Music 10 (It’s AJ !!! J) Dance 8
Another hit teach for Kate at Southport – One that caught my eye because
I’m a No.1 Alan Jackson fan & this is an awesome nightclub track – Love it –
And it’s a nice easy yet still neat dance too – So a cross between Where We’ve
Been & She Believes ............. Just a nice no frills cool dance to
awesome country – And fortunately for me both my classes are happy with this one
too !!!! J ..... It’s closer to Intermediate than to Improver though !!! ... And
only 8 for the dance because maybe I’d personally have preferred something just
a touch harder – But I’m still enjoying it – And if you’re looking for an easy
teach the dance is a 10 !!! J

SUBJECT: See you at the Showdown!
From: Bra...@MoveInLine.com
I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at the Line Dance Showdown in Boston
this weekend!
I'll be teaching a few workshops during the weekend, and JP will be DJing a
bit, too. :-)
On Friday, I'll be teaching in the style of CardioLineDance(TM) for
Absolute Beginners when I teach Can't Stay Out and Rock Me Baby.
Saturday morning, first thing, I'm excited to teach DY-NO-MITE which I
choreographed with Ruben Luna earlier this year.
For those who are still moving (somehow) on Sunday, John Robinson and I are
teaching against each other for the last workshop slot of the weekend. I'll be
teaching So Said Joe which I co-choreographed with JP Potter and we were
fortunate to have Scott Blevins make the finishing touches.
The rest of the time this weekend, I'll be jumping between taking some
great workshops from other instructors and manning my vendor table for
CardioLineDance(TM) and bep jewelry (designed and made by myself and my mom.
Stop by and say hello! :-)
See you all in Boston Thursday night!
