A brief update on what's happening
in just my own Ocala classes these days!
On Top of the World
dancers are going strong and increasing in my Monday
classes at this
wonderful community! Four levels and all just a great crowd of happy
dancers. Thanks to all the volunteers who continue to practice with each
level, making
their dance experience really special. I appreciate ALL of
you!
COWBOYS SALOON:
Thursday Nights we have a mixed level
but the majority is Intermediate/Advanced level dancer.
This gives me the
opportunity to teach many of the great dances that are taught at the big events,
and also much of the newer choreography that is created monthly. We dance
from 7:30PM until
10PM or later on the best dance floor in Florida! Smoke
free until 10PM with no cover charge.
I encourage everyone to buy something
to drink to keep our Thursday night happy!

SUBJECT:
DANCES THIS WEEK
FROM: BIG DAVE
A dreaded revision week as I promised them lol !! :-( ..... We don't
often have one because most of the Toon AZ's dance in lots of places so revision
(Past 2 or 3 weeks) is not that vital usually, but we've done some great new
dances recently & we needed one this week - I only promised for the main
class though & I need some fun myself right, so the earl-birds got a couple
of new ones (Because we are up to date with them) & late-birds got a new one
(Because we just have too get through some great new prospects !!!) - And they
were well received :
Early-Birds :
Your
Loving Arms (Vikki Morris) - 32/4 Intermediate - A lovely cool/smooth mainstream
West Coast - A floor split for Klara's Thinking Out Loud which the late-birds
did/do - This is an awesome track & the dance is lovely - Seen lots of good
reports about it so fingers crossed Vikki :-) xx
Comeback
(Dee Musk) - 64/4 Intermediate - A cracking new pop Cha from Dee - She sent me
this ahead of the weekend & I could not resist it whoops - You'll love it
Folkestone & the sheet will be out over the weekend - I'll be doing it in
the main session next week for everyone - Well done DeeDee :-)
xx
We recapped Yvonne's cool East Coast The Boy Can Dance from the
Awards :-) New Shade Of Blue & Modern Romance sorted so got a couple more
easy ones lined up to start next week, maybe Rob & Rachael's new Improver
country ones :-)
Late-Birds :
Hypnotized
(Darren, Fred & Raymond) - Phased Intermediate - A cool funky one A/B/Tag
but not too hard & not too fast either & everyone loved it (We'll put
the arms in next week !!) - Another great dance out of Strictly Stoke - We also
enjoyed recapping Slave 2 The Rhythm & Battle Scars ..... And looking
forward to Guyton's Twisted Sister now next week
:-)
Middle-Birds !! :-)
So in between this lots of
great revision - Here's To Us, Love Me Like You Do, LIPZ, Ready For The Good
Life, Shades Of Passion & Bubbles Dahhhling, Hard Work, A Thousand Miles
& Hard To Say It - We'll have another go at Don't Dance Alone, Too Blind To
See & One Great Mystery next week - Some awesome nightclubs out right now -
Next week lots of requests for N&J's We Could Be Giants, so we'll be doing
that one, another great dance from the Awards weekend & another go at
N&J's I'm Burnin' Up too :-)
Off to Folkestone today
- Chill night before our Just Dance weekend with Dee & Karl - Cya there if
you are coming - Looking forward to our first visit to the town - If you want a
go at any of these dances just see me :-)
