Subject: New Dance by Steve and Dean - Sweetness

 

From:  Kris Mercier

 

Just learned the cutest dance choreographed by Steve Lescarbeau and Dancin' Dean named Sweetness to the music Sugar by Maroon 5.  At first look this appeared to be an easy 32 count dance.  Upon learning the dance it is done to the corners of the room and indeed a challenge.  I love the music and the dance is "hard" enough to keep your attention but not so over the top as to make you give up.  I'd recommend this dance to anyone looking for a challenge without having to remember a ton of steps.  Try it, you'll like it.

Keep on Dancing!

Subject: Music for the dance: What Lies Beneath.
From: Phil Carpenter.
E/mail: philipca...@sky.com
Date: 25th February 2015.
 
Hi guys,
           This is not a posting I wanted to make,but feel that I must.

 

With regard to the music for my dance: What Lies Beneath which was recently published in Up Country Magazine.

 

Just as the dance was showing some promise in going around,I have hit a problem.

 

A number of people have been complaining to UP COUNTRY that they cannot get the correct music for my dance: ie 3.41 minutes long.

 

It would appear the only track available is 5.17 minutes long which doesn't fit the choreography.

 

The track that I used was taken from a compilation album: Dutch Country Music 2014 which I duly purchased from I/Tunes.

 

I have looked into this and have spoken with I/Tunes about the situation,and they claim that, because the artist concerned: Ezzcape have
 
now released their own new album( Head Over Heels) with a
 
new version of this track on it,the management company have had the original album removed from the I/Tunes stores.

 

This removal has only recently happened.

 

I do not know if this is true or not,it seems strange to me as there are 32 other tracks on this album,so the other artists must be affected?

 

What ever the situation, the album, along with the track has gone.

 

I have been trying to contact the Groups management company,along with the Dutch Country Music Association, to try and find out what is
 going on,but have heard nothing yet.

 

I have also been talking to a group from the U.K to see if a cover version can been done,early days yet,but will keep you informed.

 

The dance was choreographed and released with all good intentions and in good faith, and I am surprised at the amount of complaints,with some people being quite annoyed, that have been received.

 

This situation is completely outside our control, and I would request that people do not give Gaye at U.C a hard time.

 

All the relevant checks were made about this music before releasing the dance.

 

I understand that this is becoming an increasing problem with some artists,and would ask that, if anybody else has had a similar
problem,how did you get around it?

 

I had a similar problem with my dance: Born To Be Blue, to a track by the Mavericks,The video of the dance was removed from You Tube
 
by E.M.I along with a warning, issued to our club about future use.

 

Please bear with me on this,I obviously, do not want to lose this dance because of it's potential,so If anybody has any queries about it
 please contact me directly.

 

Sorry to go on about this but I am gutted about what has happened.

 

Anyway
Happy Dancing
Phil

Don't miss the fun with Scott Blevins, Bracken Potter, Julia Wetzel, Amy Glass and Malene Jakobsen. We'll have a wild time in the old west!! These choreographers range from one of the top choreographers of the world to the hottest rising stars in our line dance community. They'll be teaching their own dances as well as "hot off the press" dances from around the world. And remember.... a smaller event means you'll be dancing all your requests. Your feet will go home tired but happy!!   And.... Brenda Shatto will be teaching as a guest instructor.    We're very excited that she'll be joining us!
 
Get your hotel reservations made with Country Inn & Suites (480-641-8000 Ext 505; 6650 E. Superstition Springs Blvd, Mesa, AZ, 85206, USA;

Our event will be held at Las Palmas Grand again with one of the most fabulous dance floors, and that alone is worth the trip!
 
The temperature forecast for tomorrow is 74 with plenty of sunshine!  Sound good???   Come to Arizona in March ---- you'll love it!    Consider a pre or post-trip to the Grand Canyon and Sedona.... Great memory making opportunity!

Hope you are doing well and I got more updates and new videos to share with you. I waited a few weeks to update this email list so everytime you get an email for me you know it would be fill with new stuff.

 

1st thing is a little update of me , I have been getting back into making videos and it is going great. I also feel great and having fun again making dance video. My goal is to try to put everything I know about popping dance and also my ideas on this dance on some type of media via videos or notes .
I think video would be best becuase it a dance and it really need to show then just text.

 

Our site is all updated .
It now show better on tablet and phone. I update the site a few times a week now to match what we are putting up on youtube so take a look at it.
The phone site is size to help you get to what you need much faster.

We been testing out what is the best formmat for us to run our youtube channel . I think what we have now is going good and it is working for me as far as putting new videos up weekly.
We hosted a video workshop talking about our core 4 technique ( hitting, waving , tutting, mind )
This is a detailed workshop and talk about the idea of this system
