RE: USLDCC (United States Line Dance Choreography Championships)
FROM: USLDCC
The first event of the new season of the USLDCC will start at the Line Dance Showdown in Quincy, Massachusetts on March 30 - April 2, 2017 and the FINALS will be at the Line Dance Showdown 2018.
The USLDCC consists of SIX events:
- Line Dance Showdown (Quincy, MA) http://www.jcdanceproductions.com/line-dance-showdown/
- Line Dance Marathon (Raleigh, NC) http://thelinedancemarathon.com
- Fun in the Sun (Orlando, FL) http://www.jcdanceproductions.com/fun-in-the-sun/
- Hotlanta Line Dance Jam (Atlanta, GA) http://www.jcdanceproductions.com/hotlanta-line-dance-jam/
- Florida Line Dance Classic (Orlando, FL) http://www.jcdanceproductions.com/florida-line-dance-classic/
- Big Bang Dance Classic (Charlotte, NC) http://www.empiredance.us/line-dance.html
The USLDCC is open to any amateur choreographer. Amateur, as defined by the USLDCC, is an individual who has never received any form of compensation (i.e. monies, accommodations, or travel fees) for teaching their own original choreography or co-choreography. This does not include “volunteering” as an
instructor at workshops/events or teaching in the individual private class.
Previous USLDCC overall Champions are excluded from further competitions.
Competition entry must be original choreography created during the twelve (12) months prior to competition.
DIVISIONS
USLDCC offers a total of three (3) divisions:
* Newcomer/Novice (Beginner/Improver)
* Intermediate/Advanced
* Phrased
A competitor may enter up to TWO entries per division at any qualifying event.
Qualifying for the 2018 Championships held at the 2018 Line Dance Showdown:
- All choreographers must compete at two (2) USLDCC competitions;
- AND must place 1st or 2nd place in any division at any participating event to qualify for the “Championships.”
- Each 1st or 2nd place finish will earn you ONE dance entry into the “Championships” for each placement. Example - If you competed in Newcomer/Novice four times and place 1st twice and 2nd twice, then you can enter FOUR dances in the “Championship.” There will “potentially” be 12 dance entries in each division in the “Championship.”
The USLDCC is a great platform for your choreography to be seen and has opened many doors for our previous competitors!

SUBJECT: Dancin' with Marilyn, Ocala, FL
FROM: Marilyn McNeal, BoarsN...@aol.com
Ray's back from the West Africa CWE Mission Trip, finishing the construction a church and a school in that area. The medical and dental teams are there now helping people with health issues we've never even heard of in our country. Thank God we live in the USA! I'm back from the 10 days back and forth to Tampa, so it's back to our typical crazy life here in Ocala!
We have to refinish and reseal the Barn dance floor again. It danced beautifully, until humid weather rolled in the last dance classes. Not acceptable, and really unbelievable. Can't figure out what happened, only that somehow the sealer did not cure properly. The weather forecast in Ocala is rain for tomorrow and rather than take a chance on another humid night of sticky dancing, the scheduled Thursday Intermediate/Advanced dance class is CANCELLED for this Thursday. We have a dance floor expert coming tonight to set out our options for a quick turnaround. I'm sorry, but will have another class in 2 weeks (or less).

SUBJECT: NEW DANCE VIDEO
FROM: Lisa McCammon
Thanks to everyone for the positive response to The Release, the easy beginner dance which I co-wrote with Curtis Smith, an online friend. We had a great time working together and there's a story behind how this dance came to be, but email me if you want to hear it.
In response to several comments, I have re-edited the demo video to remove my cueing. You can watch the new one if you want to hear the music better, or the original if you want to hear narration about the steps.

Happy dancing from Lisa and Curtis

From: Marilyn Richardson (mimi2...@gmail.com)
The 5th annual Good Times Line Dance Winter Workshop will go on, but the location has changed.
The date is Saturday, January 20, 2018. Norma Rankin hosted this event at the Brookridge Community in Brooksville, FL. for the past 4 years but has decided she can no longer do it. Tom Knight and I are going to try and fill her immense shoes!! The workshop will be held at the VFW Post 10209 at 14736 Edward R. Noll Drive in Spring Hill instead. So please mark your calendars for this fun-filled event that is geared towards beginner and improver dancers. We have a whole new lineup of instructors and a catered lunch will still be included. You can email or call Tom Knight or myself for further information and/or a registration form.
